It looks like a great idea, and it must actually work, but so far my >use with QB gives me an error: "invalid library." There is a bug in QB 4.0(b) that causes a bogus "Invalid Library" error. What happens is that QB barfs on certain data apearing in the beginning of the QLB. What you would need to do is to move .OBJs around. For instance, PDQComm suffers from this problem. I recomend in the README that they add QB.LIB in front of COMMQB4.LIB to create a new QLB. LINK /QU QB.LIB COMMQB4.LIB,,,BQLB41; That creates a QLB that will work. This bug has been fixed in 4.5 and PDS. Later Dave --- msged 1.99S ZTC * Origin: Home of The QBNews (fidonet.org 1:141/777.1)
