Question VB programming technique question

[JTH]

I am fairly new to VB and am interested in using .dll's. I have a rather large number of stand-alone modules that I use and reuse in various programs. I am wondering if I should merge them all into a single .dll that can be IMPORTed into whatever program might need one or more of the modules. They all can be either SUBs or FUNCTIONs.

Question: will VB include the entire .dll, or just the functions that are called by the program in the final .exe? Is this an issue? Is this the usual way to reuse smaller modules?

Any advice would be appreciated,

John

The whole point of a .dll would be defeated if any of it was included in the executable!
