Hello,

```
           I am new in this area. I am using the following approach for parallel processing:

```

1. I have few modules. In starting file I mentioned addprocs(2). From the starting file I called a function of another module. Function is returning large array of AbstractString. I also mentioned “using modulename”  
to access the function from the starting file. In that module I mentioned @everywhere function functionname  
Function is working well with single process. But for multiple process it is giving not finding “functionname”

Could you please suggest?

Thanks,

---

Could you post the actual code instead of the verbal description? That would make it easier to comment on succinctly.
