Unfortunately, it seems that you may have misunderstood.
 
The common routines alone are nearly 300K.  Those common routines are
utilized by each of the over 100 EXE's, which are themselves an
average of 100-200K apiece.  The total size of all EXE's right now
is over 16 MEGS.  My big problem is, that to link the common routines
into each EXE would mean that the total size would mushroom to over
48 MEGS.
