Details

This utility has taken at least a thousand hours over the last ten years to develop and test.  There are 11,282 lines of code in version 2.11 which have either been painstakingly hand crafted or code I've cunningly copied from the Internet.  I have no idea how many hours I've spent in responding to emails and newsgroup questions other than there are at least a thousand emails in my Auto FE Updater email folder.  

Licensing of the current set of features is voluntary.   If you like the Auto FE Updater and feel it saves you time and errors please ask your employer to purchase a license.  The cost is $175 for the first  production server on which the Auto FE Updater utility (StartMDB.exe) program is placed.  $100 on each of the subsequent servers in your organization .    This utility is licensed for developer workstations while testing.   Terminal Server or Citrix systems executing the Auto FE Updater from another file server do not require additional licensing.   In other words the license qualifies the Auto FE Updater utility to live on the number of servers for which you've purchased licensing.   I  don't care how many apps, users, or work environments are served from the server(s).

Email me at with your corporation name and address and the number of servers.  I will email you a license number along with an invoice in a PDF file.   The license number will allow you to download an encrypted license file so you can immediately see your organization name in the  forms in the utility   

Method of payment

You can either snail mail me a cheque or use PayPal or a credit card, such as Visa, MasterCard or American Express  via PayPal.  If your native currency is not in US dollars then a roughly approximate amount in your local currency is just fine    If you want to use PayPal I will send you a request for payment along with the invoice PDF file.

Thirty Day Reminder

Every thirty days or so you, the developer, will get a reminder screen asking your organization to purchase a license.    The users will never see this reminder.  One of the reasons I added the reminder is I know what I'm like.  I have the best of intentions and sometimes I need a nudge.
