I was wondering how I switch between sections. Writing "section '.data' data readable writeable" different places (between code sections) just create a new data section.

AFAIK, it is not possible with FASM1. But it will be possible to write such "section" macros for the FASMG. I have no working code, but the idea of generation of data non-consequentially and insertion of the result in a specific place of the file was demonstrated here. I think that this technique can be used for collecting machine code for sections from different places of the source file also.

What I thought was that everything with the same section name would go into the same section -- however, that is not the case.

Any idea how I can achieve this?

You can also use a linker to merge sections of the same type if you use a object file output format.

Then use your linker to make the final .exe file.
