Re-reading your message it seems you are declaring a prototype to call an
external program. That prototype would be declared inside the procedure
unless you were wanting to make the call from several different procedures
in which case it would go in the global section but generally defined in the
procedure.

I am trying to modify a current module procedure so that it will call an
external program which returns a data structure.

However the compiler is complaining about several issues.

is it even possible to have a prototype defined within a procedure in a
module or am I barking up the wrong tree.
