Compare the version of code before it started compiling as an mbo.  If you
don't save multiple versions in the future you are going to spend alot of
time guessing.

The basic difference is likely that you started using sub end sub to
organize your code, OR, you removed a code statement which existed outside
of a sub end sub at the top of your program.  This statement was used by
the mbx as an implied 'main' procedure.  Once you do this, you need to
declare a sub main end sub.  This is where programs tend to be initiated.

The benefit and use of mbo and project files is that you can link various
mb --> mbo files together into one mbx.  You will discover this later when
you are not able to create any more code in a single mb file.  Search Help
'mbo'
