Sometimes the Application Builder _does not_ include your .lib in the .mak file. If you have put the .lib file in the C Libraries box, try re-generating the make file. If this does not work, you can edit the .mak file directly. Look for the lines used to create the .def file for the linker. (These will mostly all be the .lib files used.) e.g. link $(LINKFLAGS) @<< cust.lrf $(INFORMIXDIR)\\lib\\exeseg.obj+$(INFORMIXDIR)\\lib\\fglapp.obj+ cust.obj , cust.exe, cust.map, $(INFORMIXDIR)\\lib\\isqli501+ $(INFORMIXDIR)\\lib\\fgl+ $(INFORMIXDIR)\\lib\\newvcl+ $(INFORMIXDIR)\\lib\\cclesql+ $(INFORMIXDIR)\\lib\\ascl+ $(INFORMIXDIR)\\lib\\tse+ $(INFORMIXDIR)\\lib\\vct+ mydll.lib+ ^^^^^^^^^^ insert your .lib file in here! (don't forget the plus sign (+) at the end!) commdlg.lib+ libw+ llibcew, cust.def << rc $(RCEXEFLAGS) cust.exe del cust.def Also, .DLLs are not useable with P-Code (according to the documentation), I have never tried. -- +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Kelly S.
