I checked the FAQ right after I posted the first time.  Nothing in there on
linking C and Assembler modules apart from.  I'm
sure if you might have read the FAQ too you would also have noticed they
actually reccomend having MASM 6.11 or
higher, which is what I have.  I've used NASM before.  I think it's a little
too much like running a debug script for my tastes.

The problem does not seem to be with the COFF file itself.  It's just that
the medium between the C module and the
assembled coff is not getting set up right.  I'm asking how that should be
done correctly.

How do you set it up with NASM?  Maybe there's a similar method.
