That's the RB framework, which takes care of everything for you under the
hood.  You'll have to work pretty hard to make your application expand by
much after the initial framework cost.  Obviously things like pictures,
movies, etc will cause your application to get larger.  But just using RB
code won't expand the application size too much.

Not directly, tho you can do it via declares (and probably ActiveX).
