    Unhappy

    When I try to make the .exe for my application
    which is almost 1 MEG in size), VB stops responding
    during the compiling process! (I have to use Ctrl+Alt+Del
    to break it)

    When I try the process for smaller applications everything
    goes fine. Any suggestions?

    Goto Project Properties and click on the compile tab. In there are a few options to change the way your exe is compiled. The default is fast code, adjust these settings and see if that helps.

    VBonliner - perhaps a rethink of your application's structure is in order. You should never have a program that big anyway; try splitting things off into external ActiveX DLLs and use them that way.

    It's quite possible to have a program of that size, when I started VB, I had 9mb programs since I didnt know about loadpicture, so it isnt the problem...
    Oro?

    Thumbs up

    Arc:

    I chose the 'No Optimization' option. It went through
    the whole thing in less than a minute. That was really
    very helpful! Thank you.
