Hi Sarah

There are various trickshots to do with erasing the source memo in your vcx classes, however the following is straight-forward and should help a lot:

1) Go into Project Info (in VFP Project menu) and turn off the "debug info" option.
2) Rebuild with "recompile all files" selected (in Project Build dialog). This should drop the exe size lots.
3) Run konxise against the resulting executable (reduces a 3mb exe to well under 1mb). You can buy konxise at http://www.xitech-europe.co.uk/ .

Regards

JR
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
