RC>I have been working with BESTPAL (now TURBOPAL) since Oct/Nov. There
RC>was a few problems, but most have been worked out. I can give you a
RC>list of tips and problems I have encountered if you are interested.
        I'm very interested (in list of tips/problems) and if you'd be 
so kind ...
        Several questions -
        1) what size .exe results i.e. is there a lot of baggage carried 
regardless of script size of complexity ?  Size relative to a 'run time' 
implementation
        2) do their claims of significant speed improvement stand real 
world scrutiny
        3) any DO NOT that must be avoided in your scripts to ensure 
results e.g. run time report design changes 
        4) all 4.5 commands/functions/features supported ? Exceptions ?
        5) any additional features not supported by Pdox ?
RC>The compiler works for most scripts. 
        any examples of exception code where compiler will choke
        Sorry to be so nosy but real .exe capability has ranked right up 
there on my wish list for some time. Anything you can provide to confirm 
/ deny Turbopal meshing my dreams with reality would be appreciated
