Compile it and rip out the source once it's compiled by opening the VCX EXCLUSIVE as if it were a DBF (it is) and replacing the Methods field with "" - as long as it's been compiled, the ObjCode field cointains the compiled source. PACK to eliminate the leftover space from the memo (VCT) file.


Make sure you have a backup of it that contains the original Methods code or you lose the source, too.
