i never use Button statement. I prefer to use IF THEN or While Wend statement

Code:

---

TRISA=255
TRISB=0

IF PORTA.0 then ' if push button on PORTA.0 is pressed
    PORTB.0=1 ' set PORTB.0 to 1
    while PORTA.0 ' wait untill push button is release
    wend
    pause 50 ' debounce delay
endif

Be sure you refer to the great PIN... what your PIN statement refer to? Use the pin name make your code more readable or use alias

Code:

---

PushButton1 var PORTA.0

if PushButton1 then
  ' do something here
endif
