Pieter,

you should include 'ace32.lib' in your link script.

Hi Carlos, Thank you.

I had already Ace32.lib in my link script, could it be something else?

Pieter

png.lib

Yes, I linked png.lib also.

Does anybody know how to solve "Error: Unresolved external"? (I have linked RDDADS.LIB and FIVEHC.LIB)

Hi Carlos,

I think I found a reason for the error, I think it has something to do with the PATH variable. I will try to get it work. Many thanks again!

Pieter

It works now

It was not the PATH variable, it was a silly typ mistake. I linked the right files(png.lib and ace32.lib) but in the wrong .bc file.

Thanks for letting us know you found the solution.

We all make silly mistakes--most of the time we don't tell anybody. I just made one yesterday that took me two hours to find. Sigh...

Mistakes are needed to learn

I would not call them mistakes, I prefer to consider them "training"
