Bill,

I'd say there are still a number of alternatives. The best solution may
depend on the details of arrangement. You could use an "is a"
relationship and have the modules inherit from a common parent,
overriding or adding methods as needed.

You could also use a "has a" relationship, where both admin and public
modules just "use" a common utiliy module.

Finally, you might be able to use exactly the same run modes, with a
validation check beforehand as to whether your are in "admin mode" or
note.

I've used all three approaches for various things.

If you post a more detailed example, perhaps someone could be of further
help.
