I am a novice C programmer and I have followed a book to learn to write C programs. All my programs (small, less than 50 lines) can't be compiled to an .EXE file. I got the error message: Make: Fatal Error U1077: 'LINK.EXE': return code -1 I check the the On-line Help and also the manual and still can't figure out what is going on. I have a hard time finding what the return code -1 means. Could somebody tell me what I may do to avoid this error? This only happens when I use the integrated enviroment (i.e. use shift-F5). I can compile my program using qcl or link at the DOS prompt without any problem. Thanks in advance.
