I've had the same exact problems myself, especially since I've been using either an 8 or 20MHz HC-49 case crystal in a lot of recent experiements. No matter what programming software is used, it always seems to default to "XT" instead of "HS". I usually forget to change the PIC in the drop-down menu in Microcode Studio from 16F628A to whatever PIC the program is for, but that's easy to find and correct when the program doesn't assemble correctly and gives a "too many errors" error message.

Is there an .ini file or another file I can modify to have the default settings in Microcode Studio automatically select the PIC I've been using most lately, and to default to "HS" instead of "XT" in the oscillator setting? Same question for the PICFlash software from mikroElektronika-anything I can modify to change the same default settings?
