    Sorry if I got off on the wrong foot, but I thought your initial reply was being sarcastic (thought I was being told where to go, literally). Now that I see your reasoning, I understand that I misinterpreted your comment.

    Thank you for the suggestion, I will try it over the weekend

    Oh...don't worry...it was sarcastic!
    Like I said, most 1st posts go something like this:
    I can't blah-blah-blah...
    Well, have you tried blah-blah-blah
    Can you teach me how to blah-blah-blah
    Have you got the manual for blah-blah-blah
    There's a manual for blah-blah-blah?
    Der-der-der-der...

    We are good at sarcasm too

    Like I said check the manual about the 2 stop bits. I have not needed to do that but in theory...

    Let us know how it goes.

    " THE BOOK " Says, for an instance . . . "It should only be used if parity is selected (bit 13 = 1) . . . . and several other instances of defineing individual bits . . . is there a register that can be addressed directly like the Tris or INTCON registers ? I mean indirectly there is for the lower 12 bits by using the appropriate " MODE" settings, but is there a register you can set manualy ?

    Joe,
    I read somewhere from one of the gurus about having 2 stop bits. They were setting a register using the hardware port, I can not remember whitch one though, to 9 bits and the 9th acting as a false bit. So I figure it might work using software serial too?

    Hi Dave, Well that gives me something to do, I will write a short program using serout2 and take the ASM, MAC and list files apart looking for the answer. I figure at the least If I can figure out what those commands do, it might be easier to put asm snippets in than writing endless Defines and hoping it works.
    Code:
    <b>
    DEFINE</b> SEROUT2_NON_INTUITIVE = 1
