Good afternoon, I'm sure there are ready made (VCL) solutions available for this, but it should be as easy as dropping a TIdHTTP (Indy) or THTTPCli (ICS) or similar component on your form and some sort of file-parser inside it (could be an XML-reader, INI-reader, whatever).
Let your application download a small (XML, INI, whatever) file from your webserver, you previously uploaded with file-version information of the latest build, compare it to the current version of the application and if the version is larger, tell the user. When there's a new version, just update your version-file (XML, INI, ...) on the server.

Application checks to see if upgrade is available Good Morning! I want to have my application check to see if an update is available from my website. Can anyone recommend a component and/or method of doing this? Delphi 6 on Windows XP. The less expensive the better. This is freeware. Thanks...Dan'l
