Yes, that's what I meant to ask. I thought that binding the modules M1 and M2 meant some kind of copying of the code into the program object.
What I wanted to know was, if in M1 I have a CALLP to another program, then I think the code of that program is not duplicated in my calling program.

I think the infocenter is saying I can't use CALLP if I've declared MAIN in the module of the procedure to be called. Does that mean I need to use the fixed form CALL operation and I can not use a prototype?

Thanks.
