Your DCB structure is incorrect; members 3-16 are not DWORDS, but a single DWORD split into a RECORD structure

I know. :(

How do you create those???

Do it in two steps; declare the RECORD just for the bits, and then nest a structure of that type inside the DCB declaration.  Records are featured at the end of the 'complex data types' chapter of the MASM manual, and are usually altered using the MASK and WIDTH keywords.  It's should already be done in Windows.inc, though...

Hi,

Umm...... this is unclear...

I write:

Code Select Expand

MyRecord RECORDNAME Field1:3,Field2:4

Is Field1 the bits 0-2, and Field2 bits 3-7?

To access part of MyRecord, how do I do it? Treat it like a structure?

Also, there is this thing with { } and < > . Where do you use these, and why? Seems this is a bit of a black art.

Is there a way to do this with straight-forward BYTE/WORD/DWORD?

Best regards,
Robin.
