Hello:

I just download msm9.0 When I compile and link my asm programs
follows, I always get error messages:


Assembling: example4.asm
Microsoft (R) Incremental Linker Version 5.12.8078
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1992-1998. All rights reserved.

/z2
"example4.obj" /t
"example4.com"
NUL
LINK : warning LNK4044: unrecognized option "z2"; ignored
LINK : warning LNK4044: unrecognized option "t"; ignored
example4.obj : warning LNK4033: converting object format from OMF to
COFF
example4.obj : fatal error LNK1190: invalid fixup found, type 0x0001

What's run with it?

Thanks.

; Many optional switches exist under MASM; for example:
; /Fl[file] -- To generate a listing
; /Sa -- To maximize source listing
; /WX -- To treat 'warnings' as errors
; Enter "ml /?" for a full list. So, "ml /Fl /Sa /WX" would be good
for
; catching any warnings and creating a detailed listing of your
program.

; The specific code used here is to show beginning MASM programmers
that
; data bytes (as seen in the first message here) can be inserted inside
of
; a .code section and jumped over. Also that any labels used inside of
the
; .code section to define a location must end with a colon (:)
*whereas*
; those inside of a .data section do not end with a colon.

To build programs for DOS you need the segmented linker.

And you don't have MASM v9.0. The latest ML.EXE is v8.0 - You have MASM32 v9.0,
which is designed for 32-bit code. See:

http://www.masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=161.0

To get the 16-bit linker, visit here under "Microsoft Tools":
