- Sorry. My mistake. The only thing i QMGDA2 is some comments, not
- necessary to get it working, but I like to keep everything up to date,
- so my list of files included that one.

-
- Yes. There are two files which should be relinked. Also, TKB takes the
- object files from a library in [1,24], not [25,24], so you will need
- to replace the modified files in the library in [1,24] with LBR.
-
- In short, what you did was create a new copy of QMG..., but from the
- same old object files. You also need to relink ...QUE, and before you
- do any task buildning, you'll need to update the appropriate library.
-
- The libraries are QMG.OLB and QMGCLI.OLB. Don't ask me which files go
- where, since I don't remember offhand. Either check it yourself, with
- LBR, which is pretty easy, or send me a new mail, and I'll check it
- out for you.
