Michael,

Thanks for your input. Sorry for the delay in response. This idea of
splitting the EXE and such, it's a completely side project - and I can
only take time to address it if I don't have other specific programming
tasks or meetings. Therefore the late response.

So, onwards...

        Agreed. That part of the issue is really almost a non-issue.

        Yes, true - we will still have to kick some people off if they
are using that module. But, by splitting up the system - its far fewer
people that may have to be kicked off at any one time - especially if
its split into a good number of chunks. Also, at a certain point in
time, most of the work/modifications/updgrades/fixes may be isolated to
a single module.

        But, with the multiple EXE option - can each of the EXE files
still be able to see common global var's that were created during the
running of the main EXE - which I have heard IS a problem with the DLL's
idea?!?!?

Thanks,
Kurt
