I am getting the following error:

Error[e27]: Entry "uThisData" in module ABC ( ABC.r43 ) redefined in module XYZ ( XYZ.r43 )

But, I don't see it defined in ABC.c (full search turns up nothing) so how can the linker be saying so? (and yes I have forced a complete Rebuild All)

Thanks

You'll have forgotten an 'extern' in a header file somewhere.

Yes but if a complete search of the entire project reveals no such thing?

is Redd trying to tell us sometimes silence is the best way to solve
things? Or did you try and send something and it did not go through ^^?

Have you checked all the .h that are included in the .c sometimes they
sneak into those, and can cause an error like that.

I hit the Send button when I really meant to close the window.

The thought I was going to send is that, "sometimes the files one is searching/editing are not the files the IDE is using to build the project." It can be very confusing/frustrating when this happens so double-check you and the IDE are agreeing on which files are being used.

Clearly, it is not a complete search.

OK so if you think it is not a complete search, what is it that the IAR's "Find in All Files" is not finding? (and assuming, as it is, that it is searching in all project and include files). Even when searching in all files (*.*) there is no reference to the module it says has the object also.
