"(But then I ought to be able to program it blank it out to all 0's and fin=
ish it off & just not erase )"

Hi Andrew - not sure exactly what you mean here but "blank" NV memory gener=
ally means all 1's. If you "blank" it by writing 0's to it you probably won=
't be able to program it. Erasing will usually (always?) set the memory to =
all 1's.
