Using either Wise Install (InstallBuilder 8) or InstallShield, how much more overhead (kilobytes) does adding BDE to an installation add? In other words, if "Project A" compiles to 800kb, and then added to an installation project (e.g., Wise), I may get a resulting 950kb distributable EXE.   Now, what if I wish to add BDE support to my installation?  How many more KB are we looking at (approximately +/- 100kb)?

How big is adding BDE?
