#define MAKEWORD(a,b)   ((WORD)(((BYTE)(a))|(((WORD)((BYTE)(b)))<<8)))

Here's my quick shot at it.

Code Select Expand


MAKEWORD MACRO a:REQ, b:REQ
    mov al, a
    mov ah, b
    EXITM <ax>
ENDM

Wow that simple, great! thanks again.

Also, if you're going to use only numbers as the "a" and "b" parameters:

Code Select Expand


MAKEWORD macro a,b
    exitm <((a)+((b) shl 8)) >
endm


invoke func1,MAKEWORD(7,2)
mov cx,MAKEWORD(7,2)
mov eax,MAKEWORD(7,2)
push MAKEWORD(7,2)
