BUG: Inconsistent Case Conventions in Equate @Filename

Last reviewed: October 21, 1994
Article ID: Q26653

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Macro Assembler for MS-DOS, versions 5.0 and 5.1

SYMPTOMS

When assembled with the /ML switch, the following lines produce errors for the lines containing the equate @FileName:

   .MODEL small
   .STACK

   .CODE
   @filename PROC
   @FileName ENDP
   END

The case of the predefined text equates should be consistent.

STATUS
