Well, actually we are taught by the school to learn how to use PIC 18F452 but the teacher gave us a PIC 18F442 to do some programming into the MPLAB ICD 2..this is really hard because i'm still a noob in programming and when the chip changes, the programming codes in the MPLAB IDE will change too!
So i need someone to help me with writing the program code and to get my way around the software: MPLAB IDE ver 7.50. Yea..and this is so brand new even my school lecturer isn't sure of a way to use it. OMG.

So far we know nothing about anything...except that you're using a chip that is out of date (but still completely usable)..
Don't know what your project is...
Don't know if you're actually using straight assembly, PBP, C, or whatever...
And as far as the '452 vs. the '442...
If you'd have done your homework, you might know that a '442 is nothing more than 1/2 of a '452...1/2 the flash, 1/2 the ram, same eeprom, same pinout.
