I just open the programs using UltraEdit and do my editing there.  I also
open MPLAB, but I do NOT open the source programs inside MPLAB.  I just u=
se
MPLAB to do the build's like always.  You can NOT have the program opened=
 in
MPLAB and UltraEdit at the same time, or you will risk(or be tempted) mak=
ing
changes in both windows.  Changes applied within UltraEdit will NOT
automatically update an open source window in MPLAB.  Words to live by in
this scenario: "He who gets there last, gets there best".<grin>

Just remember to save your changes (write them to disk) within UltraEdit
before re-building the project.  I wish UltraEdit could send a DDE messag=
e
to MPLAB to do the rebuild of the currently open project, but I suspect t=
hat
MPLAB is not listening. :-(   You can have UltraEdit issue DOS commands t=
o
do the compile and link, that way you wouldn't even have to have MPLAB op=
en.
