If ModA uses ModB, ModB uses ModA, and both ModA and ModB export symbols, you have a bad design.

I do not think creating ONE huge source module with 300K to 500K of code is a good idea... That's why I broke the modules up into functionality areas. ie: "Report", "User", etc...

Perhaps I come from an old school - no function - longer then 1 or 2 screens, and group "like functions" into the same file.

The modules use each other - effectively via "callbacks", yea, I could pass pointers to functions etc... but that overly complicates the matter *because* they will never call any other function other then then one.

I'll try what you suggest, move the USE ater the BEGIN statements.

I note specifically your example also has a few USE items before, then the begin, then my rats nest of USE statements. Do you mean that specific order is important? I presume the problem (my) modules go last.

Thanks... -Duane.
