Sony,

It is the way you call the code that makes it behave one way or the other, not the way you declare it.

FUNCTION Junk
lcVar = "Hello"
RETURN lcVar
ENDFUNC

PROCEDURE Junk
lcVar = "Hello"
RETURN lcVar
ENDPROC

The preceeding are exactly the same ion the way they will behave when called. If you call them with DO ... then they act like procedures and if you call them with Junk() they behave like functions.
