  Syntax
 
  CallDbw
 
  /* Direct p-code call; pop parameters and push return values */
 
  Description
 
  Like CallDb, this instruction calls a procedure in a p-code segment
  different from the currently executing procedure's segment, specifying a
  parameter byte count.
 
  However, the parameter byte count is two bytes long instead of one. This
  instruction is used when 256 or more bytes of parameters are being
  passed.
