Right now I am currently coding my menu items into my program using the designer window. The program is for my office and our IT department is always changing were our folders are located (The folders my program opens).
To solve this so far I have created a "Settings" form and allow the user to use browsefolderdialog to change the My.Settings value for each folder. So when you click the folder in the menu item it opens the set folder.
I would like to create some sort of update able database to load the menu items and be able to set their path to the folder each one of them opens. The reason I'd like to change this is because I want to add another section of departments into the application.
I am new to VB and don't know much about using a database. Also, I run this program on about 12 machines now, is there a way I can update/change one, and then the other applications also update with the new data?
