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.
