In the default addressing mode data must fall within a 64K block. The offset field has a range of +/-32K. In this case the linker has come across a reference to a data item in the data section that is outside the 64K range. More than likely, your data space has gotten too big. A poor solution is to compile with -b0. A better solution is to use AllocMem to allocate large data items. -- John Meissen ..............................
