The following compile command line given on Page 158, Section 6.7, of
the "Microsoft C 5.1 Optimizing Compiler User's Guide" is incorrect:

   CL /As /Au /ND DATA1 PROG1.C

This line should read as follows:

   CL /AS /Au /ND DATA1 PROG1.C

If a program is compiled with /As rather than /AS, the following error
will be issued:

   Command line error : D2013 incomplete model specification

This error occurs because the data pointer size has not been
specified.
