Hi Dwight,
That's excellent news, glad I could help!
Sorry for the missing NEXT, I should have at least compiled it before posting but I was really short on time.

Regarding using LONGs. If you're using Microcode Studio as your IDE there's a checkbox in the View -> Compile and program options saying Use Compiler Long Words (18 series MCU Only). Tick that and you'll be compiling with LONGs enables. As the text says you have to use an 18F part so the 16F690 or 16F1828 will not work.

/Henrik.
