    OK guys... got it going. Here is the snippet of the the code around the sleep command. Works like a charm.
    What I've done is I gave it a delay of 3 seconds from the closure of the switch to make sure PortB is undisturbed, then I took a snapshot of PortB (read it into a dummy variable), set up the interrupt and put the PIC to sleep. Once awoken, I read PortB again and cleared the flag.

    Now here is another question... I'm also running Darrel Taylor's interrupt routine based on TMR1. I use it to flash a LED if a battery is low.
    However, once the chip awakens from sleep, it would appear that this interrupt isn't working anymore (ie. no flashing).

    I've noticed the same thing happens if I try to declare INTCON=00001000 at the top of the program... does this make sense?

    Code:
        pause 3000
        dummyread=PortB
        intcon=%00001000
        @ sleep
        @ nop                       
        dummyread=PortB
        intcon.0=0
