Jonathan and Abe probably hit the nail on the head. What puzzled me is
that a space between the '#' and the '1'
Could that [space] or [non-printable] character be the problem ?
e.g. wasn't that meant to be: #1 EQU 1

Hello group,
I have to compile source programs with variables that contain the # character.
When compiling the ASM I get the following error:
ERR # 1 EQU 1
** ASMA143E Bad character in name field - # 1
** ASMA167E Required name missing
I have tried to compile the program with the parameter CODEPAGE with values of
1145, 1140, ... and I always get the error.
I am solving the problem by changing the # by @ character. I understand that
there is a correct way to solve this problem.
Thank you very much.
