Thereby, array[] in _tmain is corrupted. Is th

When will a standalone Emulator V2 with images for WM6 Basic, Classic and Pro be released While these files are available as part of the SDK, that's a 500 meg download. A standalone version would be much easier to download and install. The standalone emulator has been very useful for people doing training, demos or using third party development tools!
