Linker Error after reinstall of CCS v3.3

I had to reinstall CCS v3.3 studio on my XP machine.  Now when I try to build one of my old projects I get the following Linker error:

"Exp7x.cmd:  error: system error, can't open file '//search.obj' for input:

invalid argument"

I do not have a file search.obj in my project.  Something must be wrong with my project setup, but I am not sure what to look at.  Any suggestions?

    I presume your project has linker command file Exp7x.cmd.  My guess is that something in this file is causing the problem.  Please take a look at it.  If don't find anything suspicious, feel free to attach it to your next post.  When you attach it, you probably have to change the file extension to something harmless like .txt.

    Thanks and regards,

    I have looked over the command file,it looks ok to me.  I have attached it renamed to Exp7x.txt from Exp7x.cmd.

    Are "//" comments legal in a .cmd file?

    Try changing the "//search for _stack" comment to "/* search for _stack */".

    Using // for comments in the linker command file became legal in compiler tools version 6.1.0, about 7 years ago.

    Thanks and regards,
