I don't see why it would be any different. There are a couple of things that you should be careful about when linking more than one module: 1) Foremost ... Make sure that your program knows how big it is. You could hardcode it into the program (this makes things a real pain when modifying) or you could make the program autodetect its size. I prefer the latter approach. When you do it that way, pay particular attention to the way your modules are linked (If you have a "lastbyte" variable in one module, make sure this module occurss last when you link) 2) Beside the point ... Be careful about using DOS functions. Unless you really MUST use a dos function (e.g. file i/o) try to avoid it.
