whenver im programming apllications, up until now, i have only used the single .exe compile. The problem with this that i seem to be having is the fact that this one file application is sometimes exceding 1meg.

How abouts do i intergrate dll's intot he application to spread the file size out a bit? do i just make a dll with forms and then compile it? but then how do i access the dll with the exe app?

thanks

I'd put business logic code into the Activex dlls, not forms. That way you have a chance to reuse that logic in another app.
To reference it in your exe app, goto to Project /References and add your ActiveX dll to your exe project and refer to it in your app by the name as it appears in the object browser.
