Re: Linker for RDS programs

When I used rds, I just modified the makfile concept to perform cat's of only the relevant modules. It worked very well. It is almost exactly like a regular make and once you figure out make files isn't difficult. Plus, I really dislike the Informix 4gl Program options. Makefiles all the way! Good luck!
