Are you using C++ specific code?  If so, you can use the -Vf switch for BCC,
or look for a switch in the IDE which moves the C++ virtual tables out of 
the data segment.  

Basically, this error means that your global variable area has exceeded 64k.
Evidently, Borland puts their virtual tables (or at least some information 
concerning them) into this segment.
