Scott,
Pls excuse me for mailing you off list. i have tried to send the email
below to the list, but for some reason, the mail server that I go through
can't seem to send it. You will probably know what is going on. Could you
pls forward it to the list. It may be of interest to others
Rgds
John

>I have been using gpasm 0.9.6 for some time. I have recently upgraded to
0.9.14 , but have not had to assemble this code, until a couple of days
ago. gpasm 0.9.6 would assemble the code, without sneezing, but 0.9.14
will generate a warning telling me that I am callng a macro in column 1,
when in fact what I am doing is defining a macro, but that macro is not in
a block for which the condition is true. I don't think that my description
make a lot of sense, so I have included below a small test file that
demonstates what I mean
