From: dan berkowitz on 17 Jun 2010 07:43 given this apparent vulnerability, how would you reccomend coding an M file that i want to convert to a p file? i'm trying to avoid hard coding any thing, and am trying to call as many (p-coded) function M-files as possible. any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. db
