Some questions about WRITECODE

[The Master]

I did find that the other day. Im gonna wait for the book though because if im reading it on the PC i will be tempted to stop reading and do something else and ive paid for the book so i might aswell use it.

Thanx anyway

I agree. there is nothing yet to replace hard copy certainly for me. I print out everything I am using, datasheets etc (relevant sections). Apart from the fact I have to make the "file" I have printouts of at least the summary of ALL components as I purchase them with the order ref and supplier noted.

I just find I cannot reference material properly from the screen, I too get distracted.

of course the advantage for Paul is that he will have the latest manual 7/07 or later, the melabs version on the web site is 5/02 and does not cover PBP 2.50


Time to put the kettle on.........anyone for tea??

Never noticed that, just figured it was being updated.

I didnt notice that either. I hardly use hardcopy for anything. Even datasheets i have on my PC but i have an advantage because i have more than 1 screen so i can look at the datasheet and my work at the same time. Reading a long manual is a little different though. All i have to do is check the user CP on one of the forums i usually have open and i might end up replying to something.

The only problem i have with datasheets on the PC is that they are all in PDF format. Adobe make good software but it all takes so long to load and slows my PC down
