This may have some success (or lots of failure).
Compile the application, Start by putting breakpoints at the same places on
both machines, and when it stops, check that the addresses are the same. If
not go back another unit, until you find a unit that is at the same address.
- One way of doing this would be to put breakpoints on the initialization
sections of each unit You start with the project file, and prehaps the
classes and Forms unit and see what you come up with.
Of course this all depends on the size of the resources in the EXE not
affecting the execution location, but I am sure this has no effect (eg both
apps will by default start at $00400000).
The quick check is to put a break point in the project on Application.Run.
If this is at the same location in both exe's, then the difference is due to
resources that have been included in the exe.
Myles.

Hi Edward.
I don't have a copy of TDump. Surely if the DOS command FC shows many
differences then TDump will do the same?
Cheers,
Ross.
