Hi Darrel
Your suggestion worked just right, and now the LEDS's light up just as I thought (hoped) they would. So thanks ever so much for the help.
Just one more item if you can. I actually have 4 of the 23so8 chips and 32 LED's. The 23s08's have a common chip select line, all tied to my pic output port at RA1. I have set each of the addresses for each 23s08 from 00 to 11, but all of the LED's are coming on at the same time. I tried changing the addresses in my code but that did not change the problem. What do you think I can do now?
Thanks Nukte
