Incrementing SI by a value held in register AL

i have a value in AL, and I want to increment SI by that value.

I tried using ADD SI, AL but the assembler does not accept this (i get a wrong paramters error!)

The work around i used is a loop, incrementing SI each time by one. But this is inefficient!

How can this be resolved!!!??

thanks again!

Move SI to another register that you can add to A, then move the result to SI.
