Got it working! thanks

No, just store during the program. I'm trying to input two strings, then put them in alphabetical order. I understand how to compare and order two strings that are hard coded.

How do I save a string? Say I type in "sfrider0." How do I store that then retrieve it later? I've been messing around with it for a while and the most I can get it to do is tell me how many...

Is the right? I'm using the push and everything. I'm still not using all the variable though(xVal, yVal, and &big). How would I incorporate those into my program?

INCLUDE Irvine32.inc
.data
...

Entering -9999 for both ends the program. Ok, I think I understand whats goin on now. I'll try that and see what happens.

My homework assignment is to convert this c++ code into assembly. Here is the code

void maxInt (int xVal, int yVal, int& big)
{
big = xVal;
if ( big < yVal )
big = yVal;
...
