so the code seems so :

FOR i = 1 TO 35 !!!
SELECT CASE i
CASE 1

PORTC = s1+z1

....

CASE 2

PORTC = s2+z1

....



so and this 35 times... now i had found a solution with an array.

but i'm interested if it is possible with string manipulation too. so can i write something like that (php style) :

CASE 3
PORTC = "s".i+z1 ' same like PORTC = s3+z1 ?

"s" declares a string, the point merge them with counter i and results as s3


i have order a book about pic basic pro and waiting for. but i hadn't found a good basic reference online. does anyone know a good introduction to the syntax?

thanks again
