when I

P-Code works fine. For some array and calculation loops, it is slower
than native code, but for some interactions with collections and other
VB features, it is actually faster than native code. P-Code is
pseudo-code, meaning it is byte codes that are processed by the VB
runtime, rather than being actual machine code instructions.

I would, however, investigate the failure to compile to native code. It
can sometimes take a long time, and appear to be "not responding", so
you might try waiting longer. If it is really stuck, I would start
compiling a small test app, adding components and functions one at a
time, and see if you can establish what might be jamming it up.
