=                Create Absolute Symbol                        MASM Directive

  name=expression

    Assigns expression to name as an absolute symbol.

       Notes:     No space is allocated. The assembler replaces each
                  occurrence of name with the 16-bit numeric value of
                  expression.

                  The expression can be an integer, a constant expression,
                  an address expression, or a 1 or 2 character constant
                  string.  The expression must not be greater than 65535.

                  The name must be unique or previously defined with an
                  '=' (Create Absolute Symbol) directive.

                  Absolute symbols CAN be redefined at any time.
