Ok, I have developed a small app using the above mentioned binary.  If anyone 
is interested in seeing some of the things that can be done with this version 
of the interpreter, I would be happy to email you the lua source code files 
for the app I built.

I will put out a disclaimer now:  the code is ugly.  I am just learning lua 
and I'm not such a great programmer to begin with.  But, it works!

I have been very happy using iuplua.  It seems similar, yet easier, to 
developing in Tcl/Tk.  And Mark has been VERY helpful and patient in 
answering my numerous questions.

If you do want the zipped source code to my app, just email me at 
cribbsj@oakwood.org.  In addition to my source code, you will also need the 
iuplua4 interpreter mentioned by Mark above.  Also, you will need to setup an 
ODBC DSN on your Windows pc, name it "bamboo", and point it to the mdb file 
included in the zip file that I send you.

I've only tested all of this on Win2k, so, YMMV.
