***Lots of changes. Primarily have switched to using CodeJock interface
controls. Although the CodeJock controls did not seem to increse the file
size much when I first started using them.

***None of the above really. Have always kind of monitored the size of the
executable, with the assumption being that the smaller the better. No
specific problems noted right now, but if there was a simple way to
determine what caused an increase in the size of the file, and it's easy
enough to make a change to decrease the size, wouldn't it generally be a
good idea to do so?

Thanks for any feedback.
