Just for reference:

I finally get a spare moment around this place to try some code out a frien=

has been working on with a 18F14K22 and when I loaded the project and hook
up my ICD2 with the $50 (!!!!) AC244033 adapter, it pops up a warning
message:

"ICDWarn0068: This device has a VPP(max) below the minimum ICD2 VPP level o=

12V. Please ensure that external protection for MCLR is in place (Press the
Help button for an example circuit or use AC164112 available from

Wouldn't it have been nice if they had told me that when I ordered the
stupid AC244033 adapter?

They specify it for use with the ICD2 and /another/ adapter (the AC244023)

http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/51292S.pdf but they don't
say anything about it for the AC244033 in that document or on the ordering
web page or in the online help for the ICD2.=20

Just an FYI. You may now carry on with comments about how stupid people are
who don't read every data sheet and check every bit of documentation before
they make a purchase.
