No. The basic program just does a line 400 exec sp. ?

I may have misunderstood what you meant when you said the ML was "appended"
to the Basic program.  If it is endpacked ML, not visible in the listing,
then ordinarily it would be executed right where it is, not moved to high
memory.  Maybe you just meant that the ML is poked into memory from DATA
statements that are found near the end of the program?
