      XPost: alt.windows7.general, comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.win32       From: address@is.invalid              JJ,              > `EQU` is for defining a constant. It can't work like a macro.              Whut? I didn't try to suggest that. I just mentioned a macro as a solution       to my problem. You know, instead of              foo EQU ;              I used              foo macro args:rest       endm              , which Works like a charm.              > In term of value/data, `;` is valid only as a character/string.       > So you're missing something.              :-) Why did you think I posted this question ?              I tried a number of methods. Including using TEXTEQU and putting the       semicolon between "<" and ">" (which I imagined should work for EQUates as       (double)quotes work for DB).              Alas, the line was cut off (as shown in the .LST file) at the semi-colon       every time. :-|              Regards,       Rudy Wieser              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
