Really simple question for you experts :)

[lew247]

Never mind, i worked it out
I THINK... tough if I got it wrong I'll just give up and bin the whole pic chip thing.
although if someone had actually answered instead of suggesting things I've already tried it would have been nice. I dont post questions unless I've already looked for the answer!

I know that, I've been following along with the posts...
But...by digesting those 100's of pages, you'll end up ingesting 100 answers that you don't know that you need, but will eventually.
I never said you were lazy ('cause there are certainly those types around here, gimme this gimme that).
I'll help you out a bit more...

Hi Lew,

Do a search for "In Circuit Serial Programming". The pinouts you have listed are what are connected to the pic to program it using the ICSP programming method. In Circuit Debuggers also uses these pins. Microchip also has a appnote on how to use ICSP. There's no need to have the full scope of this method repeated as it has been covered many times here.

HTH,
