This is probably quite simple

How do you disable the watchdog timer in picbasic? I am trying to step through a program with the ICD2 and I keep getting the error that you can't debug with the watchdog timer enabled.

You've not specified what PIC you're using... so, go look in the Datasheet for your PIC... it's usually a setting of the Config Word and that information can be found in the "Special Features of the CPU" section of the Datasheet. When you program your PIC, it should appear as one of the options you can manually switch ON or OFF.

Sorry about that....I am using the PIC18F452 that came with the PICDEM2 board.

I started poking around in some of the files and came across "_WDT_OFF_2H" in a "__config" statement. That solved my problem.

Thanks for the help!
