>>Jim,

>>P.S. I also am concerened about the stability of shipping a vcx/vct combination. After all anyone with FoxPro can open and modify, on purpose or accidentally, a vcx since it is just a table. It also means more files to distribute and worry about. Maybe I am paranoid.

I do remove the source code and have never had any client mess around more than once. The first time they try it the whole system becomes non-functional and they ahve to call me to get the files restored, once they have done that they don't seem so tempted to try it again.

I think that I will have to build them into each exe. I too have distributed report formats and such to clients with good results but in this case the program will be distributed widely by my client to their users and I would like to avoid adding to their support calls and costs if at all possible. Thanks again for your help.
