Thanks for the info. I think that may be the way to go. A 12 or 14 bit ADC may give me enough resolution.

Robert,
You hit the nail on the head. Exactly what I was meaning.

From the Manual
"PBP is the DOS version of the compiler. PBPW is the Windows version
of the compiler and can take advantage of all the PC’s memory. PBPL is
the long version of the compiler and can use 32-bit variables, as well as
all of the PC’s memory under Windows. PBPL can only be used with the
PIC18 devices.",

But when I use a LONG variable and get the same answer as not using it I am stuck between "Did I do it right" or " Do I have the right version. Do I have PBPL" Where does it say "The version you are using is PBPL or PBP? As far as I know I am using PicBasic Pro. The executable that MCS or MPASM runs is PBP.EXE

Remember, I am only new at this and finding this type of info that others take as commonplace is not so straight forward for a beginner like me. I also do a lot of searching this and other forums/ websites, but again I feel that I am expected to know this as its "simple stuff".

Please note, I am not trying to offend or anything like that, just trying to highlight some of the frustrations I have with finding / understanding the "simple stuff"
