How can I most easily copy or distribute my toolbars to my kids' computers on my a small home LAN?

Should some toolbar files be stored on the Server?

Should some toolbar files be kept on each machine in a special file like c:\!TLBars where I would copy from my computer to theirs whenever I make changes?

Thank you.

jmazor There are no problems. If you are using last beta version then it have backup/restore feature. So you can backup TLB on your computer and restore it on others. If you are using other version then right-click empty space of toolbar (may be you need to unlock taskbar on XP). and select Open meu item. Transfer opened folder to other computers into any place and use switch toolbar feature to open this toolbar.

There are some restrictions:
1) If you have very deep customized TLB then be sure that on other computers all related files like icons, overlays, skins and others installed in same path.
2) If on other computers not installed some software shortcuts will lost icons.
3) Storing toolbars on server is possible but not recomended

Thank you so much for your quick response. 'Sounds like it ought to work fine for me. By the way, you may want to consider some method of easy distribution for large network administrators.
