Running GCBasic on Win98SE. The Tutorial file causes Wordpad, Notepad, and MS Works to crash when you try to open it. (This progam preformed an illegal function and will close, or something to that effect). I can look at the file in Wordpad Quick-view, but can't print or edit. Have not tried it on my XP machine. Any ideas.
Thanks, Mel

Hopefully that will work, it comes up okay on my Win98SE computer but the formatting is out a little. The reason for the trouble is probably that the .doc is in Word 97/2000 format, but Wordpad (and Works?) only open Word 6.0/95 files.
The tutorial isn't that good anyway, it's incomplete and written for a small mobile robot.

Thanks for the quick reply. I have downloaded the file. My venture into PIC programming is one mainly of curiosity. Built a project that required 2 PIC's, but software and the instructions for programming the chip was given . I was so impressed with what these little chips could do, that I wanted to learn more about them.
