This article was previously published under Q72323 SYMPTOMS
An attempt to use the Label Search or Function Search command in
CodeView versions 3.0 and later to find PROC labels in applications
assembled with Microsoft Macro Assembler (MASM) versions 5.1 or 5.1a
fails and CodeView generates the following message:
Error - Unknown symbol
CAUSE
This behavior is expected and reflects the differences in CodeView
symbolic information in MASM versions 5.1 and 6.0 and the different
methods used to interpret this information in CodeView versions 2.x
and 3.x. CodeView version 2.2 finds PROC labels that are declared
PUBLIC in code assembled with MASM versions 5.1 and 5.1a. CodeView
versions 3.x and 4.x successfully find PROC labels in code assembled
with MASM versions 6.0x and 6.1.
