Boolean value shared across multiple instance / users

Hi there, I am needing some help. I have a LabVIEW program, that is used daily by around 20 people, its kind of like a user interface software that they can do all there tasks from etc.

I am trying to set it up, so I can send a message to all users at the same time from my computer, and it will send out to all 20 computers.

I attempted to do this using network published shared variable. I managed to set it up, and worked on my computer, but when I created the exe file for the other users to use, it did not transfer the boolean value I set ( I was using this to test )

I had a idea of a txt file that's constantly being read back by the 20 computers, but seems like there must be a easier way.

I also tried to store the data in a VI that was constantly running, but it did not work either, just seemed to store the data locally.

Not sure if this is because its a exe file or not, anyone got any simple ideas?
