Summary: actually, there are at least two dBASE compilers.

There is something called DBCompiler.  It's fairly nice, but, last time I
looked at it, it did not have the capability of compiling programs which 
utilized the macro (&) function.  It seemed fairly simple to add this
capability.  It is possible that they have, by now.

Also, a company called Fox & Geller puts out some utilities which, I believe,
include a dBASE compiler.

I know for a fact that there ARE ways to get your dBASE code compiled.  Just
hunt around.
