i have a procedure like this:

Code:

bnf_struct:     mov     ebp,esi
                lodsb
                cmp     al,'{'
                jne     .yes
       .repeat: call    bnf_number
                ;...
                jne     .repeat 
                ;...

and at the line " .repeat: call bnf_number" fasm says me: "invalid macro arguments". If i change the .repeat: label to anyother it works.

i've tried the same piece in a new code file and it works, but in my code it says that Shocked

If you included the windows includes then there is the problem, .repeat is a macro and you are passing ": call bnf_number" as argument.

The error message should include the name of a macro.
Like: "macro 'repeat' has invalid arguments."
