Hi Ben, Thanks for the reply. Yes, I figured it is in the Linker settings, but I'm not sure how to find those. I do know that I got a bunch of messages when I first loaded the project that said the project was made for a later version of CodeWarrior, and was asked if I wanted to "convert" it. I said yes, then tried to do the build. What you say makes sense, though I would have thought the conversion would have been handled correctly. I'll keep poking around on it, and I'll suggest to the client that a later version of Codewarrior is necessary, but I don't expect much progress there.
