    Why should i need to add both of the lines?
    OSCCON=%01110000 '8 Mhz ;sets the actual fosc speed




    DEFINE OSC 8 ; tells the compiler what fosc speed to base timing calculation on


    software timed serout2 @ > 38400 baud with fosc < 8mhz may have an unacceptable error rate

    if ((year//4 = 0) and (year//400 != 0)) then 'check the leap year
    ndays[2] = 29 'then February has 29 days
    else
    ndays[2] = 28 'else has 28 days
    endif
    the above code only needs to run if month = 2

    Is there any way now to test the leap year?
    only the obvious , send it a few go nogo date strings and check the result

    I understood from the experiment that something didnt go well when i increased the baudrate at 38400 with the 8Mhz internal speed.

    Is there any equation or a factor that calculates this corresponding.

    thanks a lot.

    The project will be on hold for 10 days. Im about to order a PIC18F26K22 and some PIC18F46K22 along with some 16mhz crystals.

    ok everyday i read more and more and i understand things.

    I wanted to be right regarding the fuses, as far as at the moment i use the internal OSC, here it is....

    Code:
    @ ERRORLEVEL -306 ; this command prevents the compiler to give you a notice of
                      ; crossing page boundary - make sure bits are set 
    #CONFIG 
        __config _CONFIG1,_INTRC_IO & _WDT_OFF & _LVP_OFF & _CP_OFF
    #ENDCONFIG
    got the info from the following:

    Code:
    ;MPASM __CONFIG Directive Options
    ;
    ;  The PBP default configuration for the PIC16F88 is:

    the project will continue in here: http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=23951

    along with a bases of the needed understandings.
