Hello Bob,
By default, the project manager will include in the final EXE all files you have mentioned (except obvious files such as tables, etc). But all BMP, ICO, SCX, etc. will be. Try to exclude them from the final EXE by simply right-clicking a file and choosing "Exclude". This should reduce dramatically the size of the resulting EXE although you will need to distribute each separate file now. I do this for all of my projects and I often come down to a final EXE of 40Kb. This gives me a very good level of granularity as modifying a form, or changing a set of classes does not require me to recompile everything : i just re-dispatch the files I changed.
