Aloha Sannyasin, I probably sound like a broken record talking about the compiler so much, but I really wanted to comment on this:

The compiler is a great tool for catching coding mistakes; regardless of whether you plan to deploy compiled or interpreted: http://kb.4d.com/assetid=50223 "If after fixing your code you do not want to run your application compiled, simply click on the *"Clear Compiled Code"* button to remove the compiled code." > I don’t think I can use the compiler to do checking either, as tons of the > code is carried forward > from v1 and v2, and lots of code written without compiler declarations. This shouldn't prevent you from using the compiler; as long as you have either Developer Pro (singleuser) or Team Developer (client-server) the compiler should work for you - it doesn't matter how old the code is, the compiler should still function. If you don’t have Developer Pro or Team Developer then I think that the "Check Syntax" option should still work, even if the compile button is greyed out.
