You're posting in the microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet, so I'm
assuming you're talking about a web application...

The thing about a web application is that it runs on a web server which
users access via a web browser.

As such, there's no need to add a "Check updates" feature to your
application because every time you want to update the application you simply
do so by uploading the latest version to the web server...

Perhaps you could provide more details about what you actually mean...?

Are you looking to make a webservice that your windows form accesses to
compare the versions?
but at the same time clickonce is for windows forms

Can you give an example of what you are looking for?

What do you mean?

1. Check updates for an application the user downloaded?
2. Check for updates on a user's information?
3. Other?

If #1, you really should aim at the windows forms group.

Peace and Grace,

You're posting in the wrong newsgroup - this is for ASP.NET. But look
into a product called TrueUpdate - I found that was by far the easiest
way to get update functionality into my application. Although it cost a
bit of money, I had it all working in a couple of hours.
