You are probably trying to execute the functor from the OPI.  You have 
to compile it with ozc.  If your functor is in file Blah.oz, compile it 
with a command line like

	ozc -c Blah.oz

This produces the file Blah.ozf.  You can then link the functor to make 
it a module.  The module is simply a record with all the exported 
features of the functor.

	declare
	[MyBlah]={Module.link ["Blah.ozf"]}
	{MyBlah.add foo}

For more details consult the Application Programming Tutorial.
