Hello Richard,

You need to add your ".o" files to an indirect file and then it
will work.  For example, the file 'indyfl' contains the line
"./add2.o" then,

LinkEd> buildxl tmpxl,1

LinkEd> addxl from=^indyfl;to=tmpxl
WARNING: ./add2.o HAS FILECODE 0
1 OBJECT FILE HAS BEEN ADDED.

LinkEd> exit

I don't quite have an answer as to why this works where
using the actual file name does not. Perhaps someone else
does? But this works!

If you set the environment variable "ECHO" in the shell
then you can see what 'ld' does which might be helpful
to you.

HTH,

Bill
HP/CSY
