Subject: Problem setting up mulitple Link options when using text files an d abdata.exe
I can't setup more than one link nature using the abdata tool. It keeps
giving an error:
ERROR - Duplicate of Link Entry Encountered - From = xcrpg To = xcrpg
This is how the text looks:
xcrpg xtlmdl incl
xcrpg xtlmdl hide
The funny part is I can do this within ABCreator and when I dump the file to
text and run it through ABData it fails with the error above. Looks like
some kind of parsing problem with ABData.

Subject: Output Extensions...
Greetings,
I have Army Builder 1.x CD and just upgraded to 2.2 and saw the new
output extensions and how cool looking the CAV print outs look.
Has anyone done Output extensions for 40Kv3 Roster Cards and Army
List or working on them???
I would try and take on this task for myself if I was a better
programmer or could get some help.
I think it would be kick ass if I could just print out the proper
stuff for my armies before I go to the shop and play. And have them
look professional, and not like some printed spread sheets.

Having two links from the same record to the same record is illegal. To
achieve the effect you want, keep the 'incl' link and just give the
option the 'hide' attribute.

I understand now. Thanks.
Ok - then let me ask you this. I have an hidden option that is defined as
'incl'. It is appearing in the "roster notes" for the unit. How do I stop it
from doing that? It is also showing up in the printout and I don't want it
to.
Next question. I have an option which is visible, it adds a child unit, but
I don't want it, i.e. the option, to show up in the roster notes or the
printout. How do I do that?
