Help regarding pic flasher..

I am making a LED flasher using the one given on Nigel's website.
When I opens the file using IC-PROG, it gives a warning that DEVICE ID VALUE MISSING... What could be the possible reason??

Also the configuration 0x3D18 includes the WDT DISABLED. Is it not necessary to enable it if we are using PIC 16F628.

The program starts like this -->

LIST p=16F628
include "P16F628.inc"
__config 0x3D18

That there's no reason whatsoever to require a device ID?.

Only if you want to use it, and you MUST use it if you enable it, doing so on my tutorials will break them all! (unless you modify them).
 
I got a quick question for you Nigel. Can you tutorials be used on other pics (like the 12F629?)

As far as i know (not that that's much to jump about) it depends on what .h file you include in the top of the firmware (program)

Yes, any 14 bit PIC's, you will require slight device dependent changes, that's all.

Not '.h', that's not an include file, it's a '.inc' file.

Ehh yes my bad..... I meant in stead of using p16f876.inc i use p12f629.inc
