I did something like this during my windos days. I placed all the basic methods like opening files, menus, forms, etc in a db. I had to do this since I hate recompiling the whole program just to modify the form or look. It is very helpful especially during user presentation/implems... Of course, the runtime exec already had an "eval" engine builtin. and the index keys where not (record) numbers but the method names themselves -naturally :-) just a guess..
