Summary:

Page 93 of the "Microsoft Macro Assembler Programmer's Guide"

states that the .CONST directive will produce a segment with CONST

class; however, the .CONST directive will generate a segment with

class DATA.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Version 5.10. We

are researching this problem and will post new information as it

becomes available.
