BoostC issue, access 16-bit SFR as INT

Gentlemen, what am I doin' wrong? I see a definition for ccpr1 in the '2620 header file but I can't seem to access it as an INT. I get an error when trying to assign an integer variable to it;

Hi Mike,

ccpr1 is defined as a char in the header file and so I added,
to my main code so I could access it as a word.

I'm not sure why they didn't make it an int in the header.

Mike.

Now I see where it's defined as type char further down in the header file. Thanks Mike.
