Am I correct in believing the following?  

1.  UIL does not require recompilation when widget attributes are changed.  
    Recompilation with the application is only necessary when widgets are 
    actually added or deleted.  

2.  Wcl does not require recompilation in either case.  A user could conceivably 
    start an application, create a window with a new format, and read in the new 
    resource file.  The application would only need to obtain the file name from 
    the user and call WcResFile() with it.  

Thank you in advance,
