Define a XDATA byte that won't clear on reset

Guys - I am new to this micro and this tool set, and I need some help. I need to set a flag and then perform a CPU software reset (due to another problem). But I need to have a byte that survives the software reset and does not get cleared. If I define an XDATA byte, the STARTUP code will (I think) zap it before I can see it.

How can I write an XDATA byte (or any other byte for that matter) that will survive a software reset (not a power down, just a reset)?

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance!

Chris
