Hi Mike,

>I don't know how many classes can be in the set classlib at any one time, but it doesn't seem to be an issue.
Well, there is a "project" with 130 Megs zipped (PDF excluded),
with 368 vcx's in different directories.

These vcx are used by 12 Apps and 1 very large Exe,
and 2 directory levels down are added to each path.

Pulling a feeble minded german's leg ?
Ok, I SHOULD have said more clearly
"searching through the classlibs while instatiating" <bg>.
I just expect you to read my mind, not only the stuff I type!
