>The same is true of Visual Basic. The 6.0 exe is "small", but DLL's must be loaded as well as DLL's from the Win OS are used. Why doesn't Microsoft load all required VFP DLL's, with the OS? That will reduce the sie of a VFP app a bit, and give VFP developers a positive feeling about how Microsoft feels about VFP!

Well, I don't think our "feelings" are what MS is concerned about but the proper and efficient execution of the software ( did I just say MS is concerned about proper and efficient operation? :-) ) Well, you get the point. You wouldn't want to load all possible DLL's onto every system, only the ones required. The OS's are alredy bloated enough as it is. :-)
