    Well I will keep proton in the back of my mind as i already ordered PBP.

    I do have a new question, Are you saying I won't be able to use bytes and words in the same program? Of course, I am used to only being able to work with bytes. Words are just a concept to me that require lots of xtra code.

    With PBP you have
    BIT
    BYTE
    WORD
    LONG ( with the 18Fxxx chips)
    for variable sizes and they can all be used in the same program.
