Hi! I have the following problem: I will use the Microsoft Programmers Workbench to develop a C Programm. In some Moduls there will be embedded SQL statements. The extention of these files are 'SQC'. But the PWB don't know this extension. I've tried to modifiy the tools.ini File, but it failed. I don't know exactly, but the modification looked like this: build: macro PRE "sqlprep" build: .SQC.C pre_sqc_c build: command pre_sqc_c "$(PRE) <$" What's wrong? What is missing? Can anyone help? Thanx in advance. Gregor

(Sorry if this is a duplicate; my previous reply seems to have got lost.) I think the problem is that PWB isn't capable of deriving how to create a .O file from your .SQC.C and the built-in .C.O rules. You need to define build entries for a rule .SQC.O that does the preprocess and compile steps. There is a Microsoft technical note that describes this much better than the so-called documentation that comes with PWB. I don't have the details with me right now. Send me e-mail next week if you still can't figure it out from this and I'll type in the example. -- Alan Ballard | Internet: ballard@ucs.ubc.ca University Computing Services | Bitnet: USERAB1@UBCMTSG University of British Columbia | Phone: 604-822-3074 Vancouver B.C.
