MPLAB IDE error "\Microchip\MPASM was unexpected at this time."
Hmmm. After thoroughly checking the forum and go-ogle I have a question:
Why do I get this message on compile:
"
Executing: "C:\PBP\PBPMPLAB.BAT" -ampasmwin -k# -p18F2520 "TM1k.bas"
\Microchip\MPASM was unexpected at this time.
Halting build on first failure as requested.
BUILD FAILED: Mon Feb 28 22:07:57 2011
"
I think it sounds like an installation error. Any tricks to getting MPLAB to work under win7 64 bit?
Any ideas anyone? Thanks in advance!

That was a problem in the PBPMPLAB.bat for PBP 2.60 on 64-bit systems.
Windows doesn't like the (x86) in the path.
Add carets before the parenthesis in the .bat file ...
SET MPASMWIN_PATH=C:\Program Files ^(x86^)\Microchip\MPASM Suite
This was fixed in the 2.60A patch.

Thanks Darrel. OK. I did that but got the same message. This has me stumped. I have tried re-installing MPLAB (v8.53) and it made no difference. PBP works from the command line (and I got Microcode studio compiling and programming). But still nothing from MPLAB

Did you edit both lines?
One of them is REM'd out.
Try the attached file.
Remove the .txt extension.

OK. Thanks Darrel. Am now using above file. I now get the following:
Couldn't locate build tool. Check tool locations.
BUILD FAILED: Tue Mar 01 02:24:34 2011
Am I an idiot? ;-) - is the build tool PBP or MPASMWIN?

I am an idiot - It works. Turns out I didn't quite convert that txt to bat. Tricky Windows!#@$
Thanks for all your help Darrel. Can now sleep...
