But, when I do this I still manage to get DB> "UNDEFINED SYMBOL _Plot_Pixel_Fast" error from my linker. (The DB> Plot_Pixel_Fast is one of my functions) Any Ideas on that one?? :-/ When you write a program say myTest.c that #includes your header file just use this statement in that program :: extern void Plot_Pixel_Fast(your args here); ^^^^^^ You have to use an 'extern' for each of such functions that reside in graph.obj and that you intend to use in your program (i.e myTest.c) This should do it.
