Hello,
I want to know two things, the first: How can i build a program that do something like this:

Enter Your Name: <name>
Hello <name>

<name> is what the user have typed.

Best Regards,
Nathan Paulino Campos

Hi,

This has been addressed before, see for instance:

get useriput
http://www.masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=12054.0

Buffered Input.[solved]
http://www.masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=10689.0

But a summary: Use DOS String Output function 2 to
print your prompt. Use function 0AH, Buffered Keyboard
Input to read the name. Modify the input to put a dollar
sign at the end of the name. Use String Output twice to
output your response and the name.

HTH,

Steve N.

it is stored in a variable - the buffer
are you talking about converting numeric input into a binary value ?
