thanks for the info. It still doesnt solve the problm i have but gave me some ideas for the future.
Here, let me try to explain what I need done, maybe there is an easier way.

I need to be able to do something like this:
varible: db 4h,0fh,3ch,0
the program needs to be able to read the first byte in that variable, use it, then shift that byte right, with RR A. I need to be able to save this shifted byte to that same memory position. This lets me go thru the entire variable, byte by byte, and shift them, so when I loop back thru it, everything was shifted right, one bit. It will do this 8 times, till it goes back to original position.

Any ideas?
