Thank you all for pointing out my stupid mistake.
 
 I have another question to ask:
 
 When I enter a command that takes more than a certain number of
 characters (I think its around 120 or so) it does not get executed
 properly and make stops running.
 
 The use of '\' extending the command to the next line in the Makefile
 does not help.
 
 I suspect it has something to do with maximum allowable length of line
 in DOS.
 
 Is there a way around it?
 
 Or, if my executable is dependent on this many object files, should I
 start building libraries instead?
 
 thanks'
 Richard
