Hi,

Last serious ASM coding I did was for a Z80! When the 386 came along there were too many registers and I got confused :-}

I wouldn't think .NET would have direct mapping to XLAT - isn't it processor specific? If so then its unlikely there would be an equivalent opcode in MSIL. Can't see anything like it anyway (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.reflection.emit.opcodes_members.aspx)

Best,
