You don't say what programming language (much less what release/version of a compiler) you are using.
If you are talking about COBOL, it is entirely possible to put as much or as little as you might want - from either the Data Division *OR* the Procedure Division. If fact, if it is "distinct" set of logic that you want to share, you can create a NESTED PROGRAM to do the logic - and include the entire nested program as a copy member. Otherwise, you can use Paragraphs, Sections, or just "multiple lines of logic" as a copy member. If this isn't what you are asking about, please further explain your question.
