Interface of DS1307 with PIC16F876A

[Travin77]

I just wanted to let you know that there is pre-written code for this chip. Go here:

This might help.

I have already found it but i really do not know how to make it work for PIC16F876A! things might be different a bit...

Many people are telling me that i just to need to write 2 to 3 lines only to fix the actual time, after defining the ports used. And then, i'll be able to read from DS1307. so when i saw that program.... i was chocked because of so many many lines....i don't want the user to do anything with time, i do not want to put buttons.. i just want this IC to have internal real time clock working fine so that whenever i want i can take the difference between 2 time intervals in order to get seconds and then, / 3600 to ge tthe hours...

As you see, i just want an extremely simple thing but i am not able to do it...
this is why, i'll keep on asking if someone can help me to write those 7 to 8 lines as i think..
