either write
Code:
mov eax,[ds:567]    


or
Code:
ds
mov eax,[567]
    

How does it come that you need to specify "ds" in a windows program?
Usually, you don't need such under Windows and most other modern operating systems.

And actually it is the default for the type of address, so you have to use the second variant proposed by MCD if you want to make a 6 bytes instruction.

BTW, where writing "ds" as instruction is documented on fasm manual?? It works of course but it is not documented as a valid prefix (and actually there is no section that lists all the prefixes in a table)...

It is also possible to write
Code:
ds mov eax, [567]    
Like rep prefix.

I am reading the AOA e-book [ART of ASSEMBLY] which is written for MASM - so I just want to Make Sure I know the right format for fasm Smile

Oh, yeah, one more of the undocumented NASM legacies....
