Hey DT.
Thanks again - that was very informative!
I changed my code to this:

Include "modedefs.bas" ' Include shift modes

CMCON0 = 7
ANSEL = 0
DPIN var PORTA.0 ' Shift data pin 1
CPIN var PORTA.1 ' Shift clock pin 1
LPIN var PORTA.2 ' Latch pin 1


bvar var BYTE

bvar = 255
' Shift out 8 bits of data onto other pins
Shiftout DPIN, CPIN, MSBFIRST,[bvar, bvar, bvar, bvar]
Low DPIN

Main:
pause 5980
High CPIN
pause 10
'Shiftout D1PIN, C1PIN, MSBFIRST,[0]
LOW CPIN
Pulsout LPIN,10
goto Main
end

Compiles OK so lets hope :-)

Hello manjero, I think that Darrel missed the fact that you're using an 'F84. You can drop the:-

CMCON0 = 7
ANSEL = 0

The 'F84 doesn't have any analogue inputs to turn off or configure as digital IO. They're always digital IO. In fact, I have 16F84(A) selected, the compiler, (v 2.44), doesn't even recognise CMCON0.

The upgrade covers that too, only $25.
Get your now...hurry hurry hurry.
