How do you

[lew247]

I've looked at the datasheet you linked. You will need to use the SHIFTIN command to capture this data.

Thanks
although I've decided to give up totally on trying to figure out pic chips, see my question where I asked the simple query about how you connect one to an icd2

Yep, that'll get your project done. Especially when given the simple answers in another thread.
And that datasheet is missing a few key specifications...
Is the serial output clocked by the clock itself (master) or does the clock require a clock (slave)?
Methinks quite a bit easier to go with a dedicated RTC.

Hmm ... possible pussy cat
I wouldn't worry too much about those spammers trying to off load stolen goods -- I'll have them all in jail by next Christmas.

Nah, too tough for me, I'm actually really seeking a sedate, peaceful life. Most of these guys on the front line are tougher than the people that they put in jail. Some of them look like they've just come out of a bloody war. I honestly don't think you could pay them enough money. Everyday they're taking a massive gamble with their own lives with everything that they do. No thanks.

I'd imagine that there's quite a few people around that have me figured as some sort expert at picking people, you're right, I am. There is absolutely no University unit or textbook in this world that will enable you to directly transverse with this skill. I have always been street smart.

Yep, that's exactly how I pegged you...not to mention an expert at so many wonderful things.
Maybe, just maybe, since after all you are an expert, you could write that textbook that you eluded to, or create that University unit, and even include a full chapter on the art of being street smart, and otherwise, for all to see, and spread that glory which is you.
