Hi

The task:
I basically want to transfer files from the SMS server to a specific folder
on the clients. An application on the clients must be updated with new files
from time to time. I would like to use the SMS SDK to do it.
I have the following in mind:
The central application creates the package containing the files. Then the
advertisement i created, based on the package. This is done with the SDK.
The package is then downloaded by the client and placed in
\Windows\System32\CCM\Cache\*
But the application needs the files in a specific folder.

So how do I solve this best way ?

1: I could use an bat/exe file, transfered with the package or static on the
clients, for copying them to a specific folder

2: I could specify in the package/advertisement that the files schould be
placed in \MyCustomFolder\ instead ? Is that possible ?

3: I could use the client SDK to "trig" an application on the client, when
the files is recieved and then moves the files to the right folder ?

4: Cretae the package with the right PDF information for copying the files
on the client. Done by the SDK ?

The process must be completly free for user input. !!!!!

Is any og the above solution posible ? Any samples on how to create
package/advertisements with the SDK ?

Thomas
