Sometimes late binding is necessary to handle possible reference problems, but it's always easier to write code using early binding, regardless of your level of expertise.

Do the members of this group utilize the IDE advantages of early binding whenever possible while coding or is the expertise at a level where the advantages are negligible.

Otherwise I switch to late binding. You shouldn't have to rewrite any code when switching. All you should have to do is switch your DIMs to objects and derefernce the libraries. You may also have to create your own constants for some of the built in constants from the referenced libraries, but a wholesale rewrite shouldn't be necessary. Right or wrong, this is what works for me.
