How would I store and retrieve any number over 255 in say a pic 18f2550

It may be simple but I'm not geting it.:confused:

The LOW and HIGH byte need to be stored separately.

Hi,

PBP 2.60 also adds a new feature:

you can directly Write and Read Words and Longs ... ( see 2.60 Manual )

But it's you to keep track of the position in the EEPROM ... to give the good address for the LowerByte of your number ... :o
