Question:

How can I incorporate overlays into my bound application?

Response:

You cannot use overlays in a bound application. To bind an

application, you must first have a runnable OS/2 executable; then, you

use the BIND utility to make it run in both OS/2 and DOS. OS/2

executables do not understand overlays so you cannot incorporate them

into an OS/2 executable. Hence, you cannot use overlays in a bound

program.
