Seriously dude!!! You need to read the homework rule.  :tdown

You have been warned before by hutch:
http://www.masmforum.com/simple/index.php?topic=4232.msg31729#msg31729

Regarding this:

pls correct the error and give me the right prog.

I know that you are new to the forum and all, but you need to correct the tone of the language.  :naughty: :tdown

The statement you have written sound more of an order than a request! Things could easily get misunderstood especially because you can't actually see the person. Also avoid the chat jargon like "pls", this is _NOT_ chat!!!

An to answer your question....again seriously...you need to hunt some more. Problems similar to this have been answered before!
This is not a clue or anything, just simple advice, hope you take this constructively! :)

[hutch--]

shantanu is right here, no-one will correct your program and give you the right prog but if you make some effort to do your own schoolwork, you may get some help there.

1. You are trying to use the MASM32 project to build 16 it code which it will not do.

2. You need to get the 16 bit linker from the forum web site.

3. You then need to learn the OMF linker syntax so you can build a 16 bit app.

call main

main proc
    mov ah,02h
    mov dl,'A'
    int 21h
    ret
main endp

Your call "main" 2 times (1- by call 2- after ret)
Your code is equal

call main
main:
    mov ah,02h
    mov dl,'A'
    int 21h
    ret
ASM is NOT PASCAL
You must add Jmp instruction like this:

call main
jmp exit
main proc
    mov ah,02h
    mov dl,'A'
    int 21h
    ret
main endp
exit:
   mov AH,4Ch
   int  21h
