>thanks for the answer I tried this method (clear debug info) isn't there any other way to make exe's to smaller eg.like in clipper .OVL or etc. or is it true or logical that use one app for exe file eg.simple prg for calling start.exe which contains do mainmenu.app code..
I don't see what this would accomplish. The compiled code has to go
somewhere, and all this would do is spread it between two files. It still would take up the same amount of diskspace, though.
Others have given you some more suggestions, but I wouldn't get hung up on how large your EXE is. These days, multi-megabyte EXEs are pretty common.
