    EEPROM Schematic Information and example code is contained in your MeLabs PBP Manual that came with your PICBasic compiler.

    Do not worry about the questions. Everyone has to get started.
    Now do not take this the wrong way, but this project might be a little advanced for a first project. Like anything else, you need to work your way up.

    When you order the PIC make sure it is a DIP package. That way it can be plugged into a breadboard. The same goes for the EEPROM.

    When the PICKIT comes let's work on a simple what we call "blinkey". That is a program that will simply blink a LED at a given rate. What this will do is make sure you understand how to set everything up. Then we can move on to more advanced things.

    In the mean time. Read everything you can on this forum. Study the data sheets for the parts you plan to use.

    In no time this project will be up and running and you will understand what is going on.
