The only way that I know to do that is: xor ax,ax push ax push ds ret BTW: Just because you say 'assume ds:someware' don't make it so, and DOS does not set cs and ds correctly for .com files, you have to do it. -- --------------------- Alan Fargusson. { ihnp4, sftig, amdahl, ucscc, ucbvax!unisoft }!drivax!alan
