##### Syntax

-Rd,name

##### Description

The -Rd command line option sets the name of the default data section that the assembler uses for the DATA directive. If no other options are given, the default name for the section is IDATA0.

You can control the name of the data section used by the assembler within a source file using the RSEG and .SECTION directives or by using CrossStudio to set the Data Section Name property of the file or project.

##### Setting this in CrossStudio

To set the default code section name for a particular file:

- Select the file in the Project Explorer.
- In the Section Options group edit the Data Section Name property.
