I didn't say that there are other compilers for vbc. But I did say it is not necessarily the last step in building native code.

Hallelujah! But I'm sure that disclosure has caused your brain to implode. -- ================== Remove the "x" from my email address Jerry Stuckle jstucklex@attglobal.net ==================
