   Linking the RDD
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   To link an Advantage RDD as the only database driver, include the
   following files in your link command or link script:

   One of the Advantage object files:

      DBFNTXAX.OBJ  (RDD for .ntx, .dbt file formats)
      or
      DBFCDXAX.OBJ  (RDD for .idx, .cdx, .fpt file formats)

   AND

   One of the Advantage communication libraries:

      AXSCOMM.LIB  (Real mode IPX communication library)
      or
      AXSXCOMM.LIB (Protected mode IPX communication library for ExoSpace
                    and CauseWay linkers)
      or
      AXSBCOMM.LIB (Protected mode or dual mode IPX communication library
                    for Blinker 3.0 and newer linker)
      or
      AXIPCOMM.LIB  (Real mode IP communication library)

      or
      AXIPXCOM.LIB (Protected mode IP communication library for ExoSpace
                    linker)
      or
      AXIPBCOM.LIB (Protected mode or dual mode IP communication library
                    for Blinker 3.0 and newer linkers)

   AND

   The Advantage RDD library:

      DBFAXS.LIB

   For example, the following steps should be used if you want to use the
   Advantage NTX RDD (DBFNTXAX) as the only database driver in your
   application.

   1.   Add the Advantage libraries to your link command or link script
        before the CLIPPER.LIB file.

   2.   Relink your application.
