Hi Peter,

VFP has 'always' been that way. It scans your program, and tries to be smart. One solution is to include the files manually, and mark them as excluded. Not very logical, but that's VFP. Just like EDIT xxx NOEDIT and WAIT xxx NOWAIT.

Instead, I more frequently want it pulled in as excluded. I have one exe and several apps. Certain routines are included in the exe and must not be included in the apps. If such a routine gets included in an app, it will be a second instance and it may differ from the official one in the exe, because version updates often only include one or two apps. Problems may and will arise.
