Meaning of Error 71 ID Number: Q22293

4.0 MS-DOS

Question: While assembling a program, I get Error 71, which is not documented in the manual. What is the meaning of this error message?

Response: This error occurs when a CALL or a JMP is made to a label the assembler does not know will be far until after it is used in the instruction. The error is generated when the second pass of the assembler sees that an incorrect amount of code has been generated. This error has been added to the Version 5.00 documentation.
