Subject: What does this mean?

Hi all,
	I'm afraid I need some help again (sigh).

	I can compile my program Ok with all warnings on and get no errors
or warnings at all. It is made up of about 6 source files and 2 header files.
However when I try to link it I get this error msg:

main.c (.data+a6): multiple definition of 'start (.data)'
fake (.text+0): first seen here

	I am afraid I know next to nothing about PC assembly language but
I am assuming that .data and .text are somthing to do with assembly.
Please could someone tell what this means, it has only recently started
happening and I just cannot figure out why.

Any help much appreciated.
Many, many thanks in advance.
