Help with STR ArrayVar\n\c with SerIn2

[Almightyrastus]

Ok thanks, I fixed the skip 1 bit and recompiled, still no luck, still getting the same error on both lines that contain the STR command (there is another one just after this to save some more stuff).

[Darrel Taylor]

Can you post the variable declarations?

Must be something there that your missing.

The above example compiles fine. Is there anything different?

There you go, there is plenty more after that but that is the bits that are giving me the first set of troubles.

/*edit*/ it is laid out better than that, much the same as the example you gave

[Darrel Taylor]

Hmmm, very odd. That also compiles without error here.

Just added these labels.

RXERROR:
INT:

Do you have any more SERIN2's in the program?

Are you trying to create a Variable, Constant or Label named STR anywhere in the program?

Added: What version of PBP do you have?

DT

I have just tried compiling only that code from above with adding in the 2 extra labels and I get the same errors as before. I am using proton compiler 2.1.3 to do this.

I have to admit I am more than a bit new at doing all this so would there be any settings I have may have overlooked when starting out?

I know the code I have is meant to work on a 16F628 as I have seen the end result from a previous application

[Darrel Taylor]

Ah, there we go. Wrong language.

The program you have is written for PicBasic Pro from meLabs

The compiler you have is Proton+ from Crownhill Associates.

Ahh right that would explain a lot then, like I said I am kinda new to this hehe.

I just hope I can get access to the compiler through uni and fast or I am stuffed to put it politely

Thanks for your help
