exactly the same

stumbled on the
                answer but it was more luck than anything.  The secret is
simple, the
                configuration bits are specified when you program the chip,
and not in the
                assembled program.

Bless you Bob!  I have downloaded and run through the tutorials that come
with MPLAB, so I do remember where you are talking about.  I have an older
Xeltek SuperPro programmer with an adapter for the 17C4X series I will be
using to burn the chips with.  I hope that the configuration information is
something that is embedded in the hex code so it would work with any
programmer.

Thanks again,
