>I am in the process of compiling an application. With this application, I want to exclude aforms.vcx so I can send quick updates.

I know I'm missing something foolish, I just can't even think right now.

Don't delete it from the project. Instead, right-click, and mark it as "Excluded".

Don't forget to distribute it separately. A class library requires both the VCX and VCT file.

And don't forget to make it accesible with SET PATH - if it isn't in the main EXE folder.

You may already have done this, but I wanted to include the procedure, just in case.
