After searching and searching for a programming language that could make fast and most importantly tiny executables, and almost purchasing Powerbasic, I stumbled on Purebasic by accident from a link to PB from the Extreme VB forum.
I used Purebasic to make the executable which decrypts an included PDF files. (ie the encrypted PDF is appended to the executable).
At any rate, it worked great. Thanks Fred!
