Just a guess, maybe wwrong, maybe right... if your program that has all the
subs in the environment doesn't call one of them, it might
not include it in the final EXE. Whereas in the LIB/QLB
version, all subs are drawn in at link time.  Try this...
compile each sub into its own OBJ, then LIB them together
and LINK into a QLB.  THEN make your EXE and see what
results you get.  BTW, let me know how it turns out, I'm
curious too. Command line help:

    BC sub1.bas,:
    BC sub2.bas,:
    ...
    LIB mylib +sub1 +sub2 ...;
    LINK /Q mylib.lib,mylib.qlb,,bqlb45.lib;

p.s.
Oh, and you DID remove ALL the non-SUB code before you
originally made your LIB/QLB??? Say yes? Please...
