Procedure calls

Hi,

What i try to do is initialize a variable called testInt.
...
...

Code Select Expand


testInt=7


to initialize an unsigned/signed integer:

Code Select Expand


testInt DWORD 7 ; unsigned
testInt dd 7 ; same as above but less typing :-)
testInt SDWORD 7 ; signed

When i put as argument value '-10' i get a strange value.
....
But how do i store a negative value in a register?

You simply "mov" the value to the register:
mov eax,-10

If you know your value is signed, use str$(eax), if unsigned --> ustr$(eax), OR

invoke dwtoa,eax,ADDR someText to convert SIGNED value to Ascii.

Hi cobold,

I succeeded thank you verry much. :U The problem was just super small. I needed to change this line

Code Select Expand

    invoke  MessageBox,0, ustr$(eax),ADDR capt,MB_OK

into:

Code Select Expand

    invoke  MessageBox,0, str$(eax),ADDR capt,MB_OK
