Hello all!
I am in the process of doing a complete overhaul of my 6.5 applications. I
have some design questions and I would appreciate any and all input!
1. I know its old school thinking to put routines in compiled application
files and the current strategy is to incorporate them into forms
and reports instead. Is there a big performance difference in calling to an
application vs. within the form? I know its old school, but I am
still a little leary of relying on passwords to protect my programming.
2. Say I go out of my comfort zone and write the applicaitons within a
form/report. Is there any way to call a procedure from another
form/report? In the old way, I would name a procedure in a compiled
application, then call it from wherever I needed it to run. I just
hate to repeat code if not necessary, especially if I have to change it at some
point!
I appreciate y'alls thoughts on this.
