 Hi All:

 At the risk of offending the geniuses out there, I have a(nother)
 completely dumb question.  I have a PIC application that works
 beautifully on a microchip demonstration board, and won't work on my
 own.

Hello Tom!
Sounds to me like you forgot to set the watchdog timer to off!  Your program
is trying to flash the LED but the watch dog timer is resetting the processor
by way of its own time base.  The result would be an eratticly flashing LED.
Either turn off the watchdog when you program you part or add a CLRWDT
instruction to your main loop.

Hope this helps
