Yes, I think that is good advice that I should start with a simpler PIC and learn the ropes a bit before jumping in the big pool. At least then I know it is not advanced features that might be mudding the waters and confusing me. By the way my version of PBP (I get it now PicBasicPro) is version 2.5. My problem is that I want to know it all right away, and I see that is not going to happen. Thanks for all the help it has been very useful.
