    Default Compile and Program help using PICKit2

    Hi all

    I'm still learning how to use PBP - after using only assembly.

    I can't seem to get the compile and program feature to work - (or program only for that matter). What I end up doing is compile in PBP, then exit, and import and program the hex file using PICKit directly. That works fine. When I try to use Compile and Program, MCS searches for the PICKit , but does not seem to find it - it just stops and does not program. The proper device is selected - in this case a 16f870. The PICKit is plugged in to the USB port, and the chip is inserted into the programming socket.
    From the Compile and Program Option, I have PICKit selected as the default programmer.

    I'm missing something simple - please help.

    Thanks . . .

    Yes, I found that thread after some more searching. Still don't have it quite right I guess, but I'll keep trying.

    I have not even tried to make it work as I like the pickit2 software as is. I open the pickit2 software and MCS, compile from MCS and load from PICkit2.

    At this point I agree. I have been pulling my hair out trying to get this to work - must be missing a - or $ or something.
    Anyway, to h*** with it. I will stick to using the PICKit software - like you do and I have been doing.

    LOVE Pic Basic Pro however !
