But I think the documentation mentions (it used to at least) that if 
the subroutine is to be called from outside the current ado file, it 
must also be a separate file. I think you can see that heckman is 
implemented this way in the ado/base hierarchy. The problem is that it 
is "ml" that is calling your palogit, not your complogit. Since "ml" is 
a separete program, it needs to be able to finde palogit, which has to 
be in a separate file.

Best regards,
Erik
