AM>Great stuff, Clipper!  I once compiled the following program:

AM>        CLEAR

AM>which resulted in a 300K+ executable.....


I can relate to that.  Smile.

I once wrote a program, 14,628 lines and was 338k executable.  But when
I ran it and opened the databases I was out of memory when searching or
viewing records.  I had to break them up, 14 overlay files for 178k, 2
executables for a total of 542k, grand total of 720K, it worked great
for couple years with additions but the database grew to much for it to
handle it.  I loved that program, we had about 7 people that accessed it
on the network with record locking and such.

Those were the days, now if I can do that in Visual Basic I'd be all
set.

Have a great day.
