But now the I2CRead command is failing on on the HIGHBYE and LOWBYTE locations, I think it due to the X declare beng a Byte now not a Word

the i2c read uses the word var readingx the byte var x is the "scaled" result from that reading

if you can't work that out post your code so we can see what your doing {in code tags }
