In addition to what other's have said:

If you need to do that at runtime and the prg is not incorporated in a project, you could do a FileToStr(), ALINES() and parse each row in the array for PROCEDURE myProcedureName prior to a comment.

If you have the opportunity to create classes rather than PRGs, it's even simpler to test using the PEMStatus() function.
