Trying to find a reference for masm as MSDN documentation is lacking.

What does OPTION:DOTNAME do?

QuoteFor example, you may have MASM code in which the first character of a variable, macro, structure, or field name is a dot (.). Since a leading dot causes MASM to generate an error, you can use this statement in your program:

OPTION:DOTNAME
