Okay, update!

I just switched to using the Special Function Registers window as opposed to
the Watch. I just found that you can actually see 'binary' there. Same thing
happened as before. I made one discovery:  The W-Register (which contains
TEMP_VAR data, as you know) roughly seemed to be *following* what the TMR0
register was doing. My conclusion was that there must be something messed-up
with my usage of the RES function and thus my memory addressing. I switched
to hard coding the address; TEMP_VAR  equ  0x020. That works!

I am now thinking that using RES does not work without having a linker
script? Is that a correct assumption? Can anyone point me to good material
(tutorial / real world example) on dynamic code and / or linker scripts?

How does the RES directive  work when the assembler / linker sees that you
have a variable that you must access in two banks? Does it register that
variable in both banks or do you still have to pay much attention to bank
switching?

Sean.
