    You may have to create two programs.

    As you exit (form_unload), the main program, put the code in a timer on the other form:
    [/code]Shell ("apptoload.exe", 0)
    Kill "yourapp.exe"[/code]

    Because you cannot delete an app that is loaded. That is all I can think of..unless someone came up with something else.

    Well, by unlocking your harddrive you could, but I wouldn't recommend it. Matthews idea is better
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
