Re: How can I fix this compile error?

Hi Greg, In my experience, "relocation truncated to fit:" usually means that one of the segments has gotten too large. Try creating another segment - move some functions into that and see if that doesn't help you. There's a map file (somewhere) that can be created that'll even let you
