Sam, You don't have to, just add bank1, or bank2, or bank3 in front of some of your other variable declarations. This doesn't work with automatic variables (variables declared in fuctions) just static (file scope) variables. was: unsigned char tmp; is: bank1 unsigned char tmp; knock yourself out. Wynn Rostek. P.S. Check Section 5.19.2 Bank1, Bank2, Bank3 Type Qualifiers, page 140 of the new manual. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.
