Where did I put that file?

Somehow the HEX file is not being loaded into the PICkit 2 software.
I don’t know if I am explaining this well, but can anyone help? Could this be that I left the last step out during the programmer setup? It was a blank box that had somthing to do with linking the HEX code. I didn't know what to enter there.
Hi KrashKaloop,
Welcome to the forum.
Just went through the same problem. The PICkit2 is new to me too.
I found that the top box, of the three boxes, in the lower right-hand corner, of the single screen, PICkit2 programming window, labeled [“Auto Input Hex + Write Device”] worked.
But, you have to know (remember) where MCS put the hex file and what it is called. ![Smilie](images/smilies/smile.gif)
You know you have the hex file loaded (ready to progam) when it shows up in the PICkit2 [Source:] window.
