Hi, Ski

That's fully written at the bottom of 4.17 "new" manual chapter ...

you should browse the µChip site : there are "complex" functions like LOG,SIN, ... in the Floating point routines, that are not in the Melabs Download.

so, you could use those 24 and 32 bits functions ... just when needed.

I'll try to find the µChip link ( I have it here for PIC 16 and 17 on a CD ...)

Yep, I just re-read, in-depth, every single word of that chapter, and compared it to the listings of newer compiled programs vs. old (2.47 and earlier) programs.

I've got those libraries. They're quite a bit overkill for what I need. Like I said, I guess I'm just looking for a way to short-circuit PBP back into it's old evil 16/8 bit ways.
