nice- and I do like that idea.... but I will not resume something that was taught as evil when I learned HLASM (ASMF at that time / 71) I will happyly use from now on- something towards the chema from Peter I had it with long names (most of the time 3 words) -- so the labels in routine HANDLE_DISPLAY_ERRORS DC 0H will be HDE_010 or HDE_050 (numbered within the routine to avoid dupes) Instead of HDE_BA010 and further down HDE_BA200 and then HDE_BB010 (numbering being what I learned for the coding sheets) Martin
