Using asm(); I need to set the above flag bits to known values. However,
these values are likely to change each time I attempt to set them. Is there
any opcode that can set/reset these flags, and if not, is there any code
which could set/reset each of them, depending on the result of a 'bt' op,
without affecting the other flags. I can set them in any order you like if
that helps.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Andrew
