The program currently provides a method of periodically updating its database by running every so many hours. However, some users are adverse to having many background processes running and would rather call a program when we want it to run. This is often best done in a script that can be scheduled (in the middle of the night, for example). This requires a command line interface that would start the program, do a Refresh and then exit.
Is this in your future plans for the program?

Thanks

No reason why not. I have just engaged a new guy to do user enhancements so I will add it to the development  queue. Be aware though, I will be polling all users to see which developments they want to see first. There are currently about 40 enhancements queued so it'll be up to everyone what gets done first.

Cheers,

Wilson.
