    Cool PIC Program size

    Many thanks Sayzer and Charles for the final WORD (!). All clear now. I can now program a device until it (almost) bursts.

    Yes, actually I stated it from the other side.

    You are right Corona.

    PIC capacity should be higher.

    I've found that soon after using the MIN / MAX PICBasic functions, I get confused over Up/Down Right/Wrong myself

    Also take a look at this post here:

    Word sizes for the same code but for different PICs are also different.
