Maybe I don't like the idea of compile time.  Or in this case bind time.
That is an extra step I must take every time I modify the program.
Every time I add a feature.
I like the process of:
    Edit -> Run,
Instead of:
    Edit -> Bind -> Run

Maybe they only see the .ex or .exw the other files are in the path but
well out of view.  Just like the multitude of DLL's, OCX's, VXD's and
such that Windows runs on.

Can't afford or find it pointless.
So I buy the binder so that I can now bind everytime I change a file
before I run it.

I prefer: Edit - Run
over: Edit - BIND - Run
