<if you are only now going to begin using modules and binding
directories, does that mean you only program in RPGIII?>

In answer to your question:
No, all of our programs have been converted to rpgle, we are
coding in rpg free, as well as rpgle, and our programs are
compiled thru CRTBNDRPG command.
Any prototypes we use are internal to the program, not external.

Hope this answers your question

Ah, so when you want to share code between programs, you are using CALL instead of CALLP? Then you are just one step behind (or in front of depending on how you look at it) us. We use calls to external procedures, but as yet have no service programs, so every module needed is bound by copy to the program. The calls are supposed to be rapid, but the use of procedures in this way means they are duplicated rather than shared. In my opinion the disadvantages of the maintenance difficulties far outweigh the advantages (if any) of the program's performance.
