>Okay. We actually don't include the DBC in the project but I'll keep this in mind. Thanks.

Please don't misunderstand what I'm suggesting. You don't have to include the DBC into the exe. Add it to the project and mark it as excluded from the exe (which it will already be marked as excluded by default). But, if you are just dead set against having the DBC as part of the project, then I don't know of a way to tell VFP where to find the functions.
