Frank, I found a hex code for MDM840. For your information only, the HEX file is identical to what my"asm86" produces. I think that CP/M-86 hex files need a different format than CP/M-80 COM files. I would sure be interested in finding out why? Again, thanks fo your invaluable help thus far. If you can find any books on CP/M-86, please provide me the titles/author.

Just an off the cuff guess, but wouldn't there need to be additional segmentation information? Last time I hacked in 8086 Assembler (Has it been a year already?) I seem to recall all of this stuff about groups, segments, and so on. I'd check it out with Intel, but I'm sure there were some mods to the HEX format for all of those goodies.
