If you would extract that routine from the procedure file, add it to the project as a separate .prg file and rebuild your exe, you will still be able to execute it in the current exe and you will be able to execute it from an external exe via DO prgname IN exename.

I think so it was just about generate one application file for run with old Foxbase runtime edition. You were creating a procedure file with Foxbind.exe, compile it and run with Foxbase runtime .EXE (I can't remember it's name).
