lnk2001 error

[masm_enthusiast]

Hello. I am new to MASM and eager to know more. I am currently doing a course that extensively involves ALP in MASM32. I have installed MASM32.It did install sucessfully and all that. however, I am unable to link the program.Its assembled...but I get some long error msg on the cmd screen abt LNK2001.LNK1120 :1 unresolved external. can anyone please help me get my MASM32 running? I need to get out of this hitch ASAP.

My OS in winxp and I did try reinstalling. I cannot figure out what went wrong! Help! please!

Try posting at least some of your source so that we know what you are working on in terms of code type and platform.

sure. Its just a humble code. I was trying to do an exercise given in the lab.

It is a program to subtract 2 16 bit no's

code    segment
Assume  cs:code, ds:code
org 1000h
mov si,[2000]
mov ax,[si]
mov bx, [si+02]
sub ax,bx
mov [si+04],ax
hlt
code ends
end

I saved it as sub.asm and then Project>Assemble n Link. it didnt show any error on assembling..but showed that link error.

Ok,

Its 16 bit DOS code that will not build with the 32 bit linker in MASM32. Get the OMF linker form the forum web site.

I will move this topic to the 16 bit forum shortly.
