Modules with finite spanning dimension were defined by P. Fleury [3] in an attempt to dualize the concept of Goldie dimension. In this note we study these modules in some detail, obtain an improved structure theorem for them and also extend the work done in [2] and [3]. Projective modules with finite spanning dimension turn out to be local or artinian.
