when and when not to use define-module

[mcmurchy1917-gnucash at yahoo.co.uk]

Thanks 

I've now amended my scripts to include the define-module statement and extended 
the number of use-modules statements to cater for whatever modules I was using 
as I'm now no longer inheriting modules from other scripts.

Also changed my config.user to use load.

Everthing is now working as I hoped for and my initial question has been 
answered.

Thanks
