Hi,
I use microchip MPLab ICD 2 and the picfem 2 plus board, now im complete new to this
so i tried to program in picbasi waht moer familiar looks to me, i set the pbpw as compiler
now when i use a bas program , and compile the message always is:
ERROR: Unable to find -p<pic> processor file
doe any knows whats wrong? i looked on the web for 16F877A.BAS file
buth did not found it. Im getting nervous of this
Thanks any way
Here is he sample program:
'************************************************* ****************************
'* MICROCODE STUDIO TIPS *
'* *
'* (1) : To get context sensitive help, move your cursor to a PICBasic *
'* : command and then press F1. *
'* (2) : Program assumes the PIC is running at 4MHz. To change the default *
'* : setting (for example, to 20MHz) simply add DEFINE OSC 20 at the *
'* : top of your program. *
'* *

adval var byte ' Create adval to store result

ADCON0 = %11000001 ' Configure and turn on A/D Module
Pause 500 ' Wait .5 second

loop:
ADCON0.2 = 1 ' Start Conversion

notdone:
Pause 5
If ADCON0.2 = 1 Then notdone ' Wait for low on bit-2 of ADCON0, conversion finished
adval = ADRESH ' Move high byte of result to adval

Lcdout $fe, 1 ' Clear screen
Lcdout "Value: ", DEC adval ' Display the decimal value

Pause 100 ' Wait .1 second

Goto loop ' Do it forever
End

And what have you got in the way of software? You did purchase a PBP Compiler... it doesn't come free with your ICD2...

I purchased it but i wanna use mplab cd2 because it was delivered with my picdem board

no much help in here

There's lots of help here, but you need to be a tad more specific.

Are you compiling from within MPLAB or MicroCode Studio?

Do you have MPASM or PM selected as the assembler?

Which version of PBP do you have?

i looked on the web for 16F877A.BAS file

Have you looked in your PBP install directory?

but thank already for the reply.
