concatenating 4 bytes into one pseudo 32 bit counter?

[pedja089]

Why not use LONG variable? PBP will do everything for you.
Before LONG I use something like this

A var byte
B var byte
C var byte
etc
main: 

GOTO main

Init: ' start value of each byte
A=0
B=0
etc...
RETURN

Inc:
A=A+1
IF A=0 THEN
  B=B+1
  IF B=0 THEN
   C=C+1
   IF C=0 THEN
      D=D+1
   ENDIF
  ENDIF
ENDIF

A is lowest byte, D is highest.
A,B,C,D is 0 only on overflow, so if lowest byte overflow(IT go from 255 to 0) you need to add 1 to second byte.
For example if you want to calculate actual value of counter you need to do it like this:
32bitResult=D*2^24+C*2^16+B*2^8+A
Hope that I understand what exactly you need.
EDIT:
Sorry for long, you use 16F. I didn't use 16F since LONG variable is added to PBP...
