Also add the crep32m.lib to it. 4) compile the "crpe" as a dll. Do not compile as a STATIC LIB as it will end up with errors as it will not link the crpe32m.lib. 5) copy the crpe.dll file to the $INFORMIXDIR/BIN for convenience. 6) In all the projects you create using the CRW, include the crpe.lib and other .4gh the "generate make file" would ask you for. That should work well... David PS. Thanks informix for those instructions :)
