I want to develope my applications using an application object. I am not sure of all the benefits in using it. this is what I understand, yes/no.

Enhances code reuse
Conserves memory usage
Allows rapid application development
Reduces application bloat
Cleaner shutdown for the application

This will be a major paridine change in our development process. I need to help my boss understand the benefits of developing this way.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Chuck
