First off, many thanks for the replies Bob & Joe, very much appreciated I can assure you.

So programming these devices in 'C' and Assembler is out and using PIC-BASIC seems the way to go right?

A few more questions then if I may.

1/ Can I still use my PICkit1 Flash Starter kit to load / run and test my programs even using PIC-BASIC (I'd hate to think I'd bought the kit for nothing). Or do I have to buy another evaluation board from Melabs as well as the program / compiler?

2/ Just to make sure here, PIC-BASIC isn't included in my Microchip PICkit is it?

3/ Will the PICBASIC PRO™ Compiler Demo from Melabs allow me to run and create a HEX code for the program that Joe posted for me? And can I then load the HEX code into my PICkit Starter Kit and into a 12F675 chip?

I hope all my questions make sense and thanks for your time everyone.
