RE: Hi Bob - feedback on RPG IV Procedures presentation.

[cozzi@xxxxxxxxx]

If you go to the website, I have my Procedures presentation
there (an online PowerPoint presentation). It explains this
stuff.

But the main thing to remember when moving a procedure into a
secondary source member, and hence into a secondary module, is
to use the EXPORT keyword on the P specification.

Other than that, the only thing you need to do is as you
suspected: include the prototype in both modules/source
members--both the caller's source and the definition source
member.
