After compiling the code writtent in notepad following errors were appeared in the lst file. Please help me solve these errors.

Sounds like you are attempting to compile the file using a C compiler and not an Assembler.

What is your mcu?
What is your tool chain, i.e. IDE and compiler?

Pardon my opinion, but I disagree. The listing clearly contains a line that states VERSION 1.2h ASSEMBLY COMPLETE. Why do you think it's a C compiler?

I do agree that we need further information. It looks like his syntax for a comment line is wrong.

Hello,

The compiler seems to complain about the R0, R1 and R3 not to be defined.
(see the last three lines of the compiler output).

I'm sorry I forgot to mention.
MCU is 80C32 at the AES-51 Development Board.
Compiler is ASM51.exe .

Hello,

I think you have made a mistake in the numbers.
I think that the # symbols before the numbers should be removed.

See the attached manual. (pages 2-7 and 2-8)
