You get a warning for this- My favorite is this MVI FIELD,CA'B'mark this with an ASCII B Which is simply impossible -- Martin Pi_cap_CPU - all you ever need around MWLC/SCRT/CMT in z/VSE more at http://www.picapcpu.de

Thanks for posting this. I have seen this on CLHHSI and MVHHI where the immediate argument is a character string but not on Jumps. I need to watch for this. Richard Kuebbing IBM Mainframe Assembler List ASSEMBLER-LIST@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU wrote on 05/28/2015 09:39:58 AM: From: Steve Smith

I don't always check warnings from HLASM, but today it's a good thing I did: 2DBC A7E5 96EE 00015B98 5858+ JAS R14,FORMAT_OFFSET_FIELD ASMA320W Immediate field operand may have incorrect sign or magnitude The generic immediate field warning is not appropriate here.
