Actually, this macro I've made should work, as long as TASM supports "#if" 
statements within a macro...if TASM doesn't suppor the "#if" statements, then 
I'll go to making separate macros for numbers with length 1 byte, 2 bytes, 3 
bytes, and 4 bytes.  But Josh said he's tested the "#if"s within macros, so 
I'm hoping it'll work...

And besides, I don't know Visual Basic or Perl or even that much about C/C++ 
yet, so that's kind of a problem... ;)
