Subject Re: Turn off auto compile??

Am I wrong. Yes.  I don't use projects and I do use DEO.   Therefore I need individual recompiled object modules so I can update users with them. My .exe never changes, it is just bootstrap code. Also, when I have altered a .prg/.wfm/whatever in the IDE I want to test it immediately - indeed, my alteration may be as a result of choosing Fix when PLUS detects an error.  So, again, I need immediate re-compilation. BUT I also need the copy lodged in memory in the IDE to be replaced by the new compiled version:   that is crucial to efficient working. Bruce Beacham
