[comp.lang.ada] Meridian text_io problem

Recently, I got hold of a fifth-handed copy of Meridian Ada (student version).
I have been unsuccessful in compiling any program using text_io or ada_io.
The error I keep getting is something like: missing library unit "text_io".
I'm running Meridian Ada on an IBM XT, and I am new to the Ada language.
I know that the program (less than 10 lines) is OK because it came with
the package (SIMPLE.ADA).  I created ADA.LIB in the directory I was compiling
in using NEWLIB.BAT, but still, the same error.
Below is a listing of C:\ADA\PACLIB:
	ERR.MSG
	ADA.INI
	ADA.LIB
	ADAPLIB.LIB
	DEBLIB.LIB
	SFPRT.LIB
	STARTUP.LIB
	ADALIB.AAR
	INTEL.CFG
	MLINK.EXE
	PAS2.EXE
	ADA
	REG.NUM
The other executables are in C:\ADA\BIN.

Is there anyone familiar with Meridian Ada who can help me?
