No. All VB applications require the VB Runtime which can not be statically linked. However, since the runtime is a common install with most Windows Versions, a full install is usually not required. Installing the VB Runtime directly from MSDN is always a user option. So they don't have to be package with your app even if required. -ralph

(The last thing *I'd* ever do would be wrapping the entire VBRUN/MSVBVM into my app, but you never know...) -- Roller skates on the stairs are bad judgment. That was idiotic.
