Glad you got it working!

Yeah, that stand alone revive of Pickit application is my favorite! Love it! Fast, compact and easy to use.

I think you cannot ged rid of the MPLABX as the PBP needs the assembler and the related files.

A beer would be very nice to have together but unfortunately I am about 560Km north of Athens. My town is Thessaloniki (second biggest own in Greece). Hope you visit places near the sea side or islands and feel the greek summer thing! Really hot here! Wish you a pleasant stay and if you like ancient places, Acropolis and the museum of Acropolis is a must to visit.
