Just received my pickit3 with 44 pin demo board. I use PBP 2.50 and am used to programming my chips with Winpic along with the simple ICSP shown here on the forum. But it appears now that I need to use MPLAB directly. Problem is after watching several demos on youtube I still can't "build" or "make" successfully. I am opening an .asm file that has been generated by PBP, but then MPLAB will not "make". below is just the last few lines of perhaps a hundred that show up in the Output screen of MPLAB
Warning[207] C:\PROGRAM FILES\MECANIQUE\V110 (test1).ASM 1526 : Found label after column 1. (LABEL?L)

BUILD FAILED
By the way, I am using MPLAB build 8.53 and I have already compiled and programmed my code using Winpic with the simple ICSP and it works, make me wonder why I ever bought the pickit3.
Oh, I remember my laptop doesn't have a 9 pin serial port, just USB, ...
thanks
