Hello jzprice,
in your MPASM Suite directory, you will find a file named P16F690.inc file, near the bottom of that file is a list of every Config option available.
In your PBP directory you will find a file Called 16F690.inc. This file has the <b>default</b> config statement. You may alter that statement or simply add a semicolon to make it into a comment. You may then insert the config statement into your code, every time (recommended). In your example you would change __config _INTRC_OSC_NOCLKOUT & _WDT_ON & _MCLRE_ON & _CP_OFF <br>to<br>__config _HS_OSC & _WDT_ON & _MCLRE_ON & _CP_OFF
and as nemisis stated use the DEFINE as shown in his post.
