Subject: BXLE usage assistance
Hello,
I'm writing an exit where I have to scan through an array of variable length
entries in a table where the format is as below (all the entires are readable
characters)
First 2 bytes = total length of array in hex
then
2 bytes for length of first entry in hex
First Entry in table
2 bytes for length of 2nd entry in hex
2nd entry in table
2 bytes for length of 3rd entry in hex
3rd entry in table.
repeats until end of array.
I'm thinking a BXLE will work, but getting stuck on exactly how to code it.
any help is greatly appriciated.
Thanks,
Mark.
