I am trying to program a 16F628 for a 3 digit thermometer from the
following web site,
http://www.sixca.com/eng/articles/digittemp/index.html. The hex file
that the author provides on this site will not load into my chip
programmer without a Error reading HEX file message. I would e-mail
the author of the project but there is no information about who he is
on the site. There is no contact info for SIXCA.com anywhere on the
site. I am not a programmer so I have no idea how to
check the program for errors. Does anyone know of a contact for
SIXCA.com or maybe have
an idea how to fix the code.

Thanks

Does the format of the HEX-file corresponds to the format your programmer
wants to see? What programmer are you using anyway? Does that programmer
understand the last line of the file (;PIC16F628) to be comment? Simply
check by removing it. As far as I can see there's nothing wrong with the
HEX-file.

You are correct... I removed the ;PIC16F628 from the HEX file and it
loaded fine.

Thanks
