Q: Why does the following not work?

....
USHORT chip Image={0xF700,0xF700};
....

The SAS C5.10 compiler produces "Error 25: modifiable lvalue required"

If I remove the "chip" designation, the error does not occur...If I use
far/near/const etc. the error likewise does not occur... Why?  Why should
chip cause the error... (BTW: this line was copied from the AmigaDOS
RK 1.3 manual)

Thanks...
