Problems with PICKit 2 and Microcode Studio

[crhomberg]

Hi All,

I solved the mystery of the PICkit2 and EPIC.
The difference was the assembler. I programmed using both programmers on my old PC which had MPLAB installed properly and directed MCstudio to the program files/microchip directory.
On my new PC/notebook I just put MPASM in a directory and directed MCstudio there. I now installed MPLAB 8.7 on the notebook and pointed MCstudo to that and hey presto the programmer worked.
The final tricky part was to get the programmer to work using the command driver. I just put pk2cmd.exe in a directory and pointed MCstudio to that and then added the following line to the parameters box: -pPIC$target-device$ -f$hex-filename$ -M -R -T -h2.
Now it's "compile & program" like i had it before with the EPIC!!!
Hooray!

Thanks for you input Dave, you helped me find what were not problems!
