I don't think equ will be possible.  But how about a named macro that
mentions/addresses all 4 bits?

Subject: [PIC]: Setting Equates to part of a port?


I need to set a variable name to 4 pins of portb (16F84).  Is it possible?
E.g. I need to assign the name LCD to portb, bits 4,5,6,7.

If I were assigning it to just portb then I would use

LCD equ portb

But I have no idea how to do this just using 4 bits!

JP.
