Can someone please explain what does the ALIGN MASM directive means?

Example Usage:
CODE
.DATA?
ALIGN 4
one dd ?
two dd ?

ALIGN 16
Buffer db MAX_PATH dup(?)
one dup 10 (?)
two dup 20 (?)


Note: I also wanted to ask what this means:

CODE
dd ? one, two


Now i know for this to work, you need stdlib.inc and lib from drizz..


Thanks in advance,
__Lahar__

Hi Lahar,

Good to see you are keeping your interests in Assembler healthy. ;)

.data? == uninitialized data types.

I won't pretend to know what I do not. I am no assembly expert.

As some direction to help answer your other questions...
