After editing the INC file in PBP I got this message

Error [113] c:\pbp\16f628.inc 22 : Symbol not defined (_HC_OSC)

For your info I'm using 16F628 now cause i broke some of the 16F627a pin while
remove it from my icsp.
Theres already a 10k resistor and a diode in series on my icsp module.
The LED blink when i touch the osc pin.

Hi Azmax100,
First off, Congratulations on your sucess, It is so irritating to pour your time and effort into a project and it does not work as expected.
I have commented out the default config statements for the chips I use most often and always insert the config statement into my code.
This gives me flexibility to quickly change things like OSC, WDT, MCLR, BOD, and I never have to go hunt for the config settings in another file.

Thanks for the time explaining. I've spend three days just to make the LED to blink. I've experienced with Basic stamp 2. I know it's a little bit harder to play with PIC but I am willing to learn.
I will start a robotic project shown by you in rentron.com. For sure the will be a lot of of (silly) question. he he
Anyhow thanks to you and Joe s.

Do you have to change the configuration for the XS_osc and HS_osc in the .INC file or can i´t be done in the pbp program like this?

@ device  pic16F628, hs_osc

I include this
@ DEVICE pic16F628, HS_OSC in my program. Now it run smoothly.

You are wright. The problem I can't compile with MPASM because it is not in the same directory with PBP. I read it somewhere in this forum post by Melanie.(do I spell it correctly).It's a good guide. Thanks Mel.

And regarding the book that you are written ( i read it in another thread) that's a good Idea. I am not going to be an ee engineer. I am learning this uC thing as a hobby. But might be someday my boy will be. It's good to share knowledge with other people and I consider what you have done and going to do will benefit others in future. After all we human being will leave all we have when the time come. So why not doing something good for others while we can.

This is my 2cents.
