I am wondering how to break a big project up into smaller projects. More specifically, I have an application with VMP4 as it's framework. I want a main executable that contains all the code for the class libraries and external prg routines. I want to make sub projects (and compile them as apps) which will extract a few forms from the original project so that I can create a few apps which will run when a button is pressed from the main program.

To recap, a main exe will contain all compiled code for vcx and prgs etc... ( I don't want the sub projects to house common vcx and prg files that the apps use, I just want the apps to have access to this compiled code.)

An app will contained a couple of compiled forms (scx's). The forms use vcx's from exe file.

I almost had something like this working, but I kept getting error when trying to launch the app from the button in the exe file. It couldn't see the vcx's in the exe. (The vcx compiled into the exe is what I want seen by the app.) VMP4 has a fucntion x3setcls to use in order to set class libs which I used in the app but the dog gone app still wouldn't see the vcx's in the exe file.

I am wondering how to make this work. And if I can't make it work like this, how can I make it work. Can a compile all the vcx's into, say, fll or some other type of winders run time library or com object or whatever? I would like sub apps to share the compiled vcx files so that they aren't so bulky from having to inlcude the vcx's in the project again.

THanks in Advance.
