Thanks Thomee. That did appear to be my error. Another question on the
same topic, how do i use variables between the modules? For instance, i
create UInt SerialRefNum in the main.c file. I then need to use it in the
char.c file. If i declare it again in the char.c file, the compiler tells
me it was already declared in main.c. If i don't, it says the variable was
an undefined identifier. I tried to delcare it in a header file that was
included in both c files, but i then got an incorrect use of header message.
Any ideas? Thanks
