Help with 16F873 "Out of Memory" problem.

[Archilochus]

Hi all,
Having an odd problem with a 16F873. I'm working on a program, compiling sections as they are finished to check for mistakes.
I compiled the program and got the usual [102] warning about the page boundary, with 2610 words used.

Then I added a single instruction, and I get a "FATAL ERROR: Out of Memory" message!

This is a 4K device, so there is lots of room left. I tried putting all the variables in 'bank0' - but that didn't help. Subroutines are all up at the top of the code.

Any ideas??
Thanks,
Arch

Duuuhhh... RTFM!!

For anyone else with the same problem - use "pbpw" in a DOS shell.

Wish they had made that a bit more obvious in the manual!!

Thanks,
Arch

what about if you use MPASM instead... i've never got this kind of problem here. Can you attach your code ?

and did you read this thread from Melanie?

Hey guys - good to know I'm not the only one! :-)

I had checked Melanie's post - that's how I finally got on the way to figuring it out (I read PM.txt - didn't even know it existed!)

I've had waaaay too many "[300]" errors :-(

Thanks,
Arch
