[AccessD] Array faster in DLL?

Yes, an array will run faster in a compiled state.  How much, I'm not sure,
it is going to depend what you are doing.

	Gustav,

	I'd expect some speed increase from compiled code but how much is
hard to say.  It's doubtful that it would cut the time in half but it's
certainly a possiblity.

	Are your routines in class modules?  If not and you can write them
into a class or classes I'd be glad to compile them for you so you could
test.

	Hi all

	I have some routines that manipulate data in and between some
arrays. 
	The arrays are not large but they are recalculated about 3 mio.
times which runs on my machine to 90 seconds.

	I was wondering if there would be any significant speed increase by
moving these routines to a DLL. I have no experience in writing such
libraries but guess I could find as the routines are uncomplicated.
Variables are Long mostly, only one Single. 
	It would take me some time to program these, of course, and if the
speed increase only could be expected to be, say, 30%, it wouldn't hardly be
worth it.

	Does anyone (Drew, Stuart?) have experience about what to expect?
