Hi Hilmar

>Up to VFP6, the COMPILE was not supported at run-time. In VFP6, SP3, it was enabled. Pressumably, too many developers needed and requested it. I don't know of any limitation, other than the usual ones, especially, maximum 64 KB for each compiled procedure, no limit for the PRG size.

Hmm I was talking about a runtime compiler, any takers <bg> But seriously it is a boon when you genuinely want to create runtime files like my little requirement.

Thanks for responding.
