>>I don't have a clear idea whether it is possible to separate components of my application in different files (EXE or APP), and make them all work together as if it were a single program. For instance, would SET PROCEDURE TO MyApp.APP give access to all components of the APP? Or do I need something else?

Thanks for the answer.

But what would happen at run-time? Do I have to use SET PROCEDURE and SET CLASSLIB to the other APP or EXE, to find the components?

The basic idea is to separate the 3rd-party framework (which will change infrequently) from our own forms, programs, etc. (which will change frequently), to make a smaller, "incremental", installation program.
