<[>label<[>:<]><]> DSPTR expression <[>, expression ...<]>

The DSPTR statement defines a segment pointer to the label or procedure (in a code section) specified in the expression. The pointer created consists of two words. The first word contains the segment-relative offset (0-65535) of the referenced symbol. The second word contains the segment number (0-255) of the 64K segment of which the referenced symbol is a member.
