No, sorry. Not what I was asking. lol.

I'm asking if I create a 16 bit variable, and populate it by saying "myVar = TRM1", will it automatically plug the TMR1H and TMR1L values together and stick them into myVar?

And if I add 100 to that value, then populate the timer registers again by plugging this variable back in like this "TMR1 = myVar", will the binary values of the 2 8-bit registers get split correctly and put back into TMR1H and TMR1L as appropriate?
