Q39911: C 5.10 Setup Gives U1203 Error under DOS Versions 2.x

Article: Q39911
Product(s): See article
Version(s): 5.10
Operating System(s): MS-DOS
Keyword(s): ENDUSER | | mspl13_c

When running the setup program for C Version 5.10 under DOS Versions 2.x,
the following error is generated:

   U1203    : invalid object module

This error occurs because the library manager, LIB.EXE, is bound.
Under DOS Versions 2.x, bound programs can only be run from within the
current working directory. Giving an fully qualified path will cause
the error.

Moving LIB.EXE into the current directory may avoid this problem.

More information will be posted as it becomes available.
