Apex is indeed lower cost for a small team (unless ACT has changed pricing structure significantly). The lowest price option I was quoted for GNAT support covered up to 100 developers. I'm not going to repeat the amount, because I'm sure it's no longer the same. GNAT support was lower cost for a large project. Of course, there is considerable difference between the two--neither is "just" a compiler. So a mere price comparison may be misleading. So I'm sorry I ever mentioned it. I hereby resolve not to interfere with marketing competitors. (This resolution does not apply to spammers and liars.) -- Wes Groleau http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~wgroleau
