    Why someone would want to start a code at page boundary?

    May be I need to learn that.

    I gotta parrot sayzer, why is that important? Are you trying to find out what code to leave off in order to use a pic with less space?
    JS.

    I know about the compiler warnings. I have now re-arranged some code and removed a subroutine, it is now 4.7k and does not have problems.
    Thanks for the comments.

    Wink You are not dreaming !!!

    Hi, Aerostar

    I've already noted some troubles as you describe ... diseappearing when subs are re-arranged !!!

    Generally when subroutines are placed at the end of the program , not so far from boundary limits ... ( If - Then tests not working i.e. )

    I wrote a thread about that in those columns ... but no definitive answer !!!

    Can't find a satisfying explanation to that ...

    Why insist on using 32 Bits when you're not even able to deal with the first 8 ones ??? ehhhhhh ...

    IF there is the word "Problem" in your question ...
    certainly the answer is " RTFM " or " RTFDataSheet " !!!

    Now that's different...I've always put my sub's at the beginning of the program and jumped over them and haven't had a problem. Huh... even more unsatisfying isn't it?

    On older version of PBP there was an issue with the placement of sub's. I think it was prior to 2.32. After that there was no limit as to where one can put his sub's. BUT, I found that rearranging the subs, there was a great improvment on the final code size.

    I suppose this is explained considering the boundary limits and the asm commands used by the compiler.

    So in this case, where do we put the subs then?

    Based on what criteria do we arrange the subs?
