I need HELP with compiling!!!!!!

Kenny,

Looks like you are correct.
MPLAB
Project Wizard from Project Menue
next
Select Device
next
Select Language Toolsuite
next
Project name and directory
next
Add file if you have one
next
Finish

It you need to make a file now click NEW icon and save it as *.bas if you are using the PBP tool *.asm if using that.

Then go to Project from the menu and ADD file to project.

At least that is how I do it.

I thank you all for the help. I finally generated an Intel HEX file. What I did was open MicroCode Studio and typed in my PicBasic Pro code. Then I used F9 to compile it into assembly code. Then I closed MCS and opened MPLAB IDE. I opened the assembly code file and then used Project Wizard to create a project. I'm not sure what I did after that but when I looked in the directory that contained the assembly file, there were about six other files there with the same root name but different file extensions. One of them was the HEX file. I think I'll try compilling another program and keep looking in the directory to see just when these files are generated. Thanks again for the help.

If you properly set up MCS you can do everything with a couple of mouse clicks, right from MCS. Honestly I have never used the MPLAB IDE, so I do not even know the benefit you are getting or expecting from it, it sure sounds as if trying to use it is causing you a lot of extra steps to follow. Anyway, if anything I added was useful, you are welcome.
