Wow. Thanks Mark - I missed that. I just HATE all these whiz bang "features" that force us mere mortal coders to spend *days* learning a new chip! Grrrr. <end rant>
SO to implement a pin as output only I use:
GreenLED var lata.1 ' high = light power LED
and also set:
' config
TRISa = %011001 ' set I/O directions (0 = output, 1 = input)
LATa = %011001

- still not getting it to work with above settings. Do I have bit polarity right for LATA?
