I'm not too familiar with XMS, but from the 2.0 and 3.0 specifications here:
http://www.nist.ru/hr/doc/spec/index.htm

After you call "Allocate Extended Memory Block (Function 09h)",  09h returns
a handle in r.x.dx.  r.x.dx is passed to "Lock Extended Memory Block
(Function 0Ch)".  0Ch returns offset:segment as r.x.dx:r.x.bx.  Pass these
as offset32=r.x.dx*16+r.x.bx.  Then call "Unlock Extended Memory Block
(Function 0Dh)" after your dosmemput/get.  Of course, each of those
functions need other registers to be setup and checked, before and after
being called.


Good Luck,

Rod Pemberton
