Have a look at Olins projects on his PIC development pages at http://www.embedinc.com/pic/ and see what he does in the HAL project. He also has a module to take a wav file and make the downloadable data from it. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
