Jim,

     This problem was reported in beta testing for MPLAB-SIM.  The latest
     released version on the BBS (MPLAB 3.01) solves this problem.  If you
     want to wait until next week, we'll be posting a new version of
     MPLAB-SIM which has some additional fixes and fine tunings.

Hi all,

I've been trying to use MPLAB and have ended up very confused!
What is the real result of this operation?

       MOVLW 01
       ADDWF PC,SAME
       RETLW 0AH
       RETLW 0Eh

MPLAB insists on jumping to the first RETLW 0Ah. I reckon it's wrong
and plug for the second RETLW 0Eh.

A zero offset ends up in an infinite loop!!??

I'm sure I knew how this all worked but after using MPLAB, I am
confused and have a king size headache!

Am I bugged or is it MPLAB?

Also, the RETLW instruction description "example" for all the PICs
I checked  appears to describe the table jump operation incorrectly.

TABLE  ADDWF PC
       RETLW K1
       RETLW K2
        "  "
       RETLW Kn

w = 0x07 should return K8 NOT k7, right?

This is just to confuse me more I guess....


Jim
