probably i'm getting older and need to sleep after only 22 hours awake but, i can't see why it's not working. I really suspect an hardware problem now. 0.1 uF ceramic Capacitor close to the PIC.

i didn't get any compile error with the select case stuff.

did you install the PBP patch for the F88???

Here's the patch

about the calculation what about if you skip the hexa to decimal and do like Bruce propose few post ago!!!
