Unfortunately, the answer depends on information you haven't given us yet, namely, the operating system you are using (Windows, Linux, MacOS, etc), and if it is Windows, if you are using the older DOS mode or not. The specific assembler also is important, as just how you handle some aspects of it depend on the syntax specific to the assembler. If you let us know these things, we should be able to help.
