Please Disallow Login if Client Not Upgraded

We upgraded to Vista 6.19 on the weekend and many workstations did not get the upgrade due to either the user having their laptops turned off, vaction etc.  They are able to log into Vista 6.19 with their old 6.17 client, open forms etc but get errors all over the place or issues with reports.


This could all be made much easier by doing a quick check before logging in.  If they are not on the current major BUILD give user error.  This then prompts them to contact IT to get upgraded.  We can also then track these errors in the vrvApplicationLog.


By allowing these old clients to login is opening a huge potential data corruption issue and a lot of time wasted.
