  Syntax:  [name] DB initializer [,initializer]...
 
  Allocates and optionally initializes one or more bytes of global data.
 
  name         The symbol name assigned to the variable. If no name is
               assigned, the data is allocated, but the starting address
               of the variable has no symbolic name.
 
  initializer  A constant expression or question mark (indicating
               uninitialized data). Separate multiple values by commas,
               or use the DUP operator.
