...it comes with a runtime exe that you have to execute once on each client 
install ...I automate that with the packager wizard which FMS provides solid 
instructions for.

...as to incorporating it, that depends ...I built a custom form for my 
clients because the one that FMS provides is very limited ...if you decide 
to go with TAE let me know off-line and I'll send you a sample of what I 
did.

...TAE costs were more than offset by my not having to spend much time to 
get it up and running ...and the fact that its been dead reliable for even 
the two left thumb users.
