The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft EXEHDR for MS-DOS and OS/2, version 2.01

When the /? parameter is used for EXEHDR, a listing is displayed detailing the various switches accepted by EXEHDR. This list incorrectly indicates that the /STACK switch must be followed by a hexadecimal number between 0h and ffffh. In reality, the /STACK switch must be followed by either a decimal number between 0 and 65,535 or a hexadecimal number using C notation (0x0 - 0xffff).

If any other format is used, EXEHDR will return the following error messages:

   EXEHDR: error U1110: malformed number xxxx
   EXEHDR: error U1115: option /STACK:xxxx ignored
