The "components" inquired about, such as ocx controls, do in fact require a system with significant memory. These types of components require an underlying component architecture in the OS that the Palm OS does not currently support. Sure, if you don't mind adding (wild guess here) 1/2 MB to the OS itself, plus additional KBs to the run-time requirements of the OS, then you can add a real spiffy component object model which will support the development of components by individual software developers. Once you agree to live with the additional memory overhead in the OS, then components save memory. Without that bloat, such components are not really possible. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Find the one for you at Yahoo!
