creating a piece of data of more then 256 bytes

[white scorpion]

Hi all,

i'm trying to create a string which is larger then 256 bytes and when i try to assemble the program i get as result:
"Statement too complex".

eg:

Code Select Expand


.DATA
string db    "This is my teststring, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah",13,10,\
             "here some more text to fill up the string",13,10,13,10,\
             "and another line after the newline.....",13,10,\
             "some more text here as well.... i think this string now is long enough to",13,10,\
             "give the error in during assembly...",0

When i split the string into 2 pieces the program assembles like it should.

How can i solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!
