This is good to know. I thought that might be possible. I've just never done it before. Just some swapping of ObjPtr values around (and appreciating our RefCount values, so as to not crash).

And yeah, I've done this before, using some of FireHacker's code (which I believe is a friend of yours). This is probably the simplest way to do this. Just compile my stuff into an Ax.DLL, and then distribute a BAS stub that knows how to instantiate objects from that Ax.DLL if it's in the same folder as my project. That way, I'd be assured that they'd be early-bound. I like it. And that Ax.DLL could be compiled with optimization (even if the parent project wasn't).

I'm clearly getting to the point where I have to be reminded of some of the things I've done in the past.
