How can I reduce the number of external files my program depends upon?

To reduce the number of DLLs your program needs, you can stop using the dynamic RTL files and runtime packages. See "Why does my program call for borlndmm.dll and/or cp3245mt.dll?" FAQ on how to stop using RTL files.

To stop using runtime packages, you will need to go to your project or compiler options. Select the Packages tab and uncheck "Build with runtime packages." This will reduce the number of external DLL your program needs but will increase the size of the program.
