For the applications I developed I used the runtime system, but if you pan on broad distribution it would be much better for the compiled version.

>>Please take a look at CASL at http://www.casl.com. The sell an excellent product without client liscense. the product itself sells for under $100 US. It comes complete with a very well designed IDE and a GUI interface design surface. The programming language is very much like Object oriented Pascal. It syncs with ODBC databases and can be used from everything from reomte data entry to gaming. I have successfuly used this product for several applications and found it to be well supported and it is constantly being updated and maintained.
