IBO should allow you all the same flexibilities that the BDE allowed. I
would like a sample of this so that if somehow I missed a case where I can
do some resource releases where I currently am not, that would be great. It
also may help you to understand better what is going on under the hood and
you might find out the BDE was making you pay a very costly price for its
apparent flexibility.
