   Ahhh, I see. When I was coding VB (many moons ago) we would "class 
out" logical groupings of repetitive code. Some times this would lead to 
the creation of DLLs for easy use and inclusion in other applications. 
One such that I wrote (based on an idea by another) was a RAD framework 
that took all the tedium out of using databases.
   Modules work for me though... old habits die hard.
