Hi, Victor Subervi wrote: >> Good point. Most legacy s/w is in C++. I'm assuming from lack of comment >> that C# is as yet an unborn language ;) there is another very simple problem with languages like C# or Java. In the case of C, it is the developers machine which has to have the proper software installed to compile it. Java need the proper run-time and so the byte compiler installed on every client machine. If you run into a very specific problem with the byte-compiler, you have to have a specific version installed on all clients. In case of C, you can do a static link to minimise this impact. Erich
