Now I need to add an object (also public) that will have a bunch of methods that I want to have available in every place of the application. I can add this new object to the application as a public object or I can add it as a property of the already existing one (oApp). For example:

I'm not sure which is better in terms of memory management. In terms of OOP, neither is appropriate IMO. You're trying to emulate the old dBASE procedure library. The correct way to do this IMO is to build the class library into your application and then instantiate objects and call methods as needed.

If you really want SET PROCEDURE behavior, that's still available to you, no need to use a class or object at all.
