I have a lot of code written a while ago when I used MASM that I
would not like to lose.  I read that you could compile a MASM
source to a coff image, which I figured out how to do.  I try to
write a C program to call the asm functions, but no matter what
I try, I still get undefined refrence to [function].

I am using MASM 6.11.
I am setting up my asm files like so (I'm doing this from
memory, so it could be wrong):

.486
.MODEL MEDIUM,C
.CODE

PUBLIC _function
_function PROC C
     stuff
     ret
_function ENDP

END

I am compiling with:
    ml /Zm /coff /c [file].asm
 - the /Zm switch is to allow MASM 5.x syntax
 - the /coff switch is to compile to coff, not microsoft obj
 - the /c is to compile and not link

I have tried making a prototype of the function and with and
without the underscore (in both the asm file and the c file).

I am getting the impression from the FAQ that this is not done
all that often, but I would hate to convert all my code int AT&T
syntax.  Any help at all would be appreciated, or any advice on
where else to ask this question if no one here could help me
would be good too.
