Scot; If you mean serial to the pic but controled from a parallel port then check microchip's AN589. I have my own quickbasic and executables available if you do this. I used to run from DOS but now run from win3.11 when picstart+ gives me hassles(ie pic16c74). if you have a fast PC you can reduce the program time for each location which gives faster erase than the official pgm algorithm. My program includes a cursor selection of *.hex files a spare printer port comes in handy for low budget logic analyser tasks. regards, Graham Daniel -- I invent therefore I am.
