I want to use an external file functions.f that has a number of routines/functions into my code maincode.f90 (without copying it under my code with the command "contains").
I have used the following code but it doesnt seem to work.
Which is the appropriate syntax?

program maincode

EXTERNAL functions

x = function(5)

end program

The EXTERNAL statement should not be used in your case. You only have to compile the 2 sources (funcions.f and maincode.f) and link them to one executable.

Here are some links for you to better understand the EXTERNAL statement:
