Sorry. Did not mean to be cryptic or obscure. By the question mark I meant "why not?"
Why not AL4? Yes, I never found it intuitive that A should be word-aligned and AL4 not, but that is what it is.

I guess the question mark either means you weren't sure that would result in no alignment or you weren't sure that is what I was asking for. Well, I'd never thought of assigning a specific length to an address constant. But, I tried it and it works as desired. Thanks.
