Yes, it's possible with the PICkit 2.
I describe it in Appendix A of my Great Cow Basic CHIPINO Programming manual which you can download at the Getting Started page of the GCB CHIPINO website.
Also, I use a serial connection to my PC to display variables.
I use PUTTY as my PC terminal, the serial connection and then code within my program to send variable values to the PC terminal. I use ANSI codes to position the cursor and then to update the values.
Are you ok with serial connections?
Are you ok with ANSI code? See Wikipedia, this is essentially methods to control the PC terminal.

Hello Jack, a bit late in the day for your solution but here is another which may halp. I use a PIC Simulator Called Real PIC Simulator available from here http://www.digitalelectrosoft.com
Not only deos it give you visual testing it allows you to review your code contents and variables.
Hope this helps

Is it possible to set up a debug window on my PC to view variables generated by my GCB programs?
