Hi Wim

Indeed, this is a (maintenance) problem. I've been looking in the FM
Preferences and in the Help too whether this can be changed, but I haven't
found anything yet.

Maybe you could try this workaround: import your struct app as a text inset
in the user's struct app. If you do so, you may have to change or replace
some variables (for example $STRUCTDIR) as well. And you may have to do this
for each user.

Good luck.
