Wrong assumption <g>. Think of vfp's exe and app as "zipped directories"
in which vfp reads the needed info and then copies it into memory.
Easy to try out: include a 1.5GB of table into your exe...
If you regularly have to update only part of the app, splitting
*might* make sense, but you will run into your already mentioned
troubles and possible version incompatibilities from later development.
Only recomended if most of your customers get udated via modem or mobile
phone. Do the math for cost yourself <g>.
