Rob,

   Thats is a great suggestion.  I believe that you need to be on a
fairly current service pack for that to work.

   Another option that we implemented at a client site becuase they
didn't want Checkversion to run at start up.  You can create an ICON in
Client Access so that it will start multiple sessions at once.  Well, we
just put Check Version into that batch file, and now Check version only
runs when they start CA, and not everytime Windows95 is started.  This
works especially great when users don't user CA everyday. 

   Bobs way is probably the right way, just wanted to share an
alternative.
