Sorry, I should have posted that info...

Using PBP 3
the PIC is 16F690 (but I also want to be able use the newer 16F1828)

I had thought about using Long's but I've never used PBPL and what little info is in the manual is very vague.
What does it take to use a Long?? and invoke PBPL?

I haven't done much searching on PBPL yet. I'm going to give the code that Henrik (thanks!!) posted and see what it does for me.
