we have multiple applications, some are created by using PB and others are .NET application. All these executables are deployed under one single folder and these executable are reading/writing some data in one common configuration INI file.

we are trying to convert all PB applications into PowerServer applications. Is it possible to deploy all applications under one single client application folder which can share the common INI file?

Hi Guraraja;

   One of the big questions in your PowerServer quest would be for me ... "Do the various Apps you have use the same DBMS & Schema"?

You shouldn't use INI file to do this for a PowerServer app. It should be read from settings table in the database.  Also, PowerServer requires each app to be in its own subfolder. Of course it would all be organized under one single parent folder for example "PBApps" and default/recommended location is User Profile roaming folder so that admin rights are not required by end user to install/run the app.
