Your first parameter is wrong. What API call or function is this. Maybe it wants an address like OFFSET var or just plain var.

invoke function, OFFSET var
or
invoke function, var

Ooops, I'm not malone :)

Your also not right either :)

invoke takes ADDR :)

ADDR are usually used for locals but can handle globals too, OFFSETS are for globals but can't handle locals. OFFSETS can handle forward reference of a memory address while ADDR can't.

So choose your flavor 



  .data

    var dd 4

  .code

    invoke function, OFFSET var

    ;or

    invoke function, ADDR var

    ;or

    invoke function, var



    function20 PROC

      LOCAL var:DWORD



      mov var, 4



      invoke function, ADDR var

      ;or

      invoke function, var

      ret

    function20 ENDP


Or maybe parameter 1 is missing.

:) Assembled perfectly on my machine.

I just downloaded it, ran the batch file and it built with no errors or warnings and seems to run correctly.

--------------------
Roots of a Quadratic
--------------------

Enter coefficient a: 3
Enter coefficient b: 9
Enter coefficient c: 4

Roots are:

Root 1 : -2.457427 + 0j
Root 2 : -0.5425729 + 0j

Repeat? (y/n)

hmmm, i'm not sure what the problem is. The errors are for the FloatToStr function that's in the masm32 library package. It's defined in masm32.inc as:

FloatToStr proto stdcall fpin: QWORD, szDbl: PTR CHAR

I'd make sure that the variable 'roots' is defined as an array of QWORD, then check your masm32.inc file and make sure it's the same as above. When I get some time later this weekend i'll look it over again.

guys actually i didn't had in my masm32.inc after replace
FloatToStr PROTO :DWORD,:DWORD,:DWORD
with this
FloatToStr proto stdcall fpin: QWORD, szDbl: PTR CHAR
i could get a .obj it doesn't link
quad.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _CoGetMalloc@8
quad.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _CoTaskMemFree@4
quad.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals

i've that errors to, and to resolve them i think that i include the ole32 libs... try to do that.... :) 



include \masm32\include\ole32.inc

include \masm32\lib\ole32.lib


hoppe it resolves the problem...
:)
