Following reasonably successful programming ativities using PBP within Microcode studio. I have suddenly encountered the following error:
Error: macro cmpeq?www not found
I can find no reference in any manuals / help files to this error and am now totally stuck with no idea what to do next. Any helpful suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in anticipation
Hi, David
Have a look to PBPic14 ( or 17 or 18 ...) .mac in your PBP files ... may be it is WWB ?
Then load it back again from the original diskette ...
Alain
Thanks Alain and mister e
Alain: Tried reinstalling from original pbp disc but it makes no difference.
Mister e: Not sure what you mean but presume I have not given sufficient info. If so I apologise and hope the following is of help/interest (The Pic being used is a 16F628a whichI have been successfully programming with the same software on very similar programs.
The ultimate objective of the program is to select one of a list of nominal values and then using a random number generator and a lookup table to produce a corresponding number which will produce an answer which is based on either a normal distribution or a skew distribution and display it on the same seven seg display that is used for selecting the nominal number.
There are two lists of nominal value i.e from 2 to 12 in increments of 2 and from 10 to 35 in increments of 5. Code written so far is simply to select the nominal number from one of these two options by identifying the mode (modes 1- 3 use the 2 to 12 sequence and modes 4 & 5 will use the 10 to 35 sequence.
I have removed a number of syntax errors (I am still a bit of a novice) but am left with this message:

You have confused the compiler with the line
nomsel = nomsel = inc
I also agree with the multiple equal stuff. I see some others too
it's probably an copy/paste error but
should beCode:
trisb = %00000000 ‘ Set portB to outputs for 7 seg display trisa = %1111‘ ‘ Set Port A2 -7 to digital inputs to read
cmcon = 7 ‘ switches and A0 –A1 to outputs to
‘ multiplex 7 seg display
thisCode:TRISB=0 ' set PORTB as output
TRISA=%11111100 ' Set Port A2 -7 to digital inputs to read
' switches and A0 –A1 to outputs to multiplex 7 seg display
CMCON=7 ' disable analog pins on PORTA
can be replace toCode:poke porta,%11111101 ' Turn on tens digit
pause 1 ' Leave it on for 1 ms
poke porta,%11111111 ' Turn off digit to prevent ghosting
And maybe.. maybe, some variable name u r using are already use in PBP assembler rouines... i'm not sure of inc,w1,b0,ACode:PORTA.1=0 ' Turn on tens digit
pause 1 ' Leave it on for 1 ms
PORTA.1=1 ' Turn off digit to prevent ghosting
about this one
depending of you math priority.. safer if you use some ()Code:if nomsel > maxno then nomsel = nomsel -inc * 5
about this oneCode:if nomsel > maxno then nomsel = nomsel - ( inc * 5 )
not sure if it's working to look into b0 and return into b0.. maybe yes, maybe no. tryCode:Lookup b0,[$40,$79,$24,$30,$19,$12,$02,$78,$00,$18],b0
one last, your appostroph is not the good character must be ' instead of ‘Code:Lookup b0,[$40,$79,$24,$30,$19,$12,$02,$78,$00,$18],b1
b0=b1
that's a big big big difference or you can use ; instead

Hi Folks,
Brilliant, I must be going senile ! The double equal sign was the problem. I assumed (obviously incorrectly) that snce I wagetting no reports of syntax errors that there could not be a mistake of that kind. Consequently I dd not check as well as I (hopefully will in future) My only regret now is that I don't live near enough to either of you Guys to buy a round ! I am extremely grateful. many thanks
