WHAT is the code to get the previous value of an operation? I want to use it to increment and decrement this value?

[GunnerInc]

You would create a global variable in the data section or uninitialized data section and increment/decrement it in your proc.

is this value goto ax register?

[Fredex]

Why I can't get the value of input to this code..

this is my code in upper part:

   FIR_INDEX0:
  	MOV AH, 02H
  	MOV BH, 00H
  	MOV DH, 05H
  	MOV DL, 0DH
  	INT 10H

	MOV AH, 7
	INT 21H
	
	CMP AL, 13
	JNE FIR_SKIP
	

  	;JMP SEC_INDEX0

	  FIR_SKIP:
  	CMP AL, 30H
  	JB FIR_INDEX0

  	CMP AL, 39H
  	JA FIR_INDEX0
	
INCR:
  	MOV FIR, AL
	SUB FIR, 30H
	
	mov BL,AL

and in lower part I'll try to get the value of input in this code but not successful.

back:	

	mov ah,9 
	lea dx,PMT
	INT 21H
	
	MOV AH,7
	INT 21H
	
	cmp al,'i'
 	je increment

	cmp al,'d'
	je decrement
	
	cmp al,27
	je exit
	
increment:	
	ADD BL,1
	
	MOV AX, 3
	INT 10H
	
	;BLACK_TEXT
	MOV AX, 0607H 
	MOV BX, 0000H
	MOV CX, 0541H
	MOV DX, 000DH
	INT 10H

    ;MATRIX_DISPLAY
  	MOV AH, 02H
  	MOV BH, 00H
  	MOV DH, 05H
  	MOV DL, 0DH
  	INT 10H

	MOV AH, 9
	LEA DX, DIS
	INT 21H
	
	JMP INCR
	

decrement:
	SUB BL,1
	
	MOV AX, 3
	INT 10H

   ;BLACK_TEXT
	MOV AX, 0607H 
	MOV BX, 0000H
	MOV CX, 0541H
	MOV DX, 000DH
	INT 10H

    ;MATRIX_DISPLAY
  	MOV AH, 02H
  	MOV BH, 00H
  	MOV DH, 05H
  	MOV DL, 0DH
  	INT 10H

	MOV AH, 9
	LEA DX, DIS
	INT 21H	
	
	JMP INCR

	loop back

what's wrong with this?

[GunnerInc]

Well, bl is the low byte of the 16 bit bx register which is the low word of ebx.

EBX is the 32 bit register
BX is the low word of EBX (16 bit)
BH is the high byte of BX
and BL is the low byte of BX

So if you put a value in BL then move something into BH and BX as you do for your int 10, then you just overwrote that value.

You could push BL before an int 10 call then pop it afterwards, but do as I said, create a variable and save it to there.

Yes, you do have an EBX register and can use 32 bit registers in DOS 16 bit code!!!

.data?
SomeVar     db ?
...
...
...
    mov     SomeVar, al
...
...
...
increment:  
    inc     SomeVar
...
...
...
decrement:
    dec     SomeVar
