Rodolfo,
Addition to previous message why I insists on 'do' :)
ExecScript compiles each time it's called (internally it's :
copy code to a temp file
compile and execute)
With 'do' you might either directly send .fxp to client or compile once there.
I did similar thing with ExecScript and ended with DO version (especially if sending parameters).
You can still use StrToFile(lcPrg,'SpecialFunc.prg') if you're storing them in a table or something like that (would directly store compiled versions there).
