The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Syntax:   name
 
     A symbol is a name that represents a register, segment address, offset
     address, or full 32-bit address. At the BASIC source level, a symbol is
     the name of a constant, variable, or procedure; you do not necessarily
     need to know what kind of address it represents.
 
     In the CodeView Command, Local, and Watch windows, BASIC symbols follow
     the naming rules used in the BASIC language. In particular, data type
     identifiers used in BASIC ($, %, &, !, #, and @) are accepted. Symbols
     are never case sensitive to BASIC, whether or not the Case Sensitivity
     option is on.
