I've been asked to update an old assembler program (ca. 1993) to let it run in 31-bit mode. It uses the LOCATE macro so there's special code in it to force 24-bit mode, allegedly because LOCATE had to run 24-bit back then. It seems unlikely that this restriction hasn't been lifted sometime in the last 13 years, but I can't find anywhere that says so specifically. Anyone have the straight scoop?
I honestly don't know if such a restriction ever existed. I can tell you that our software issues both LOCATE and OBTAIN without problems in 31-bit mode with all parameters above 16MB.
