I know that! That is basic stuff there buddy. I am simply saying that you might as well do some sort of off board 18F1320 so that way you won't have any limitations on what you want to do. Doing the MOD is etc, but you might as well make it a target board.
Change the new connector to a 2x5 so you can use a ribbon cable. They have been used on target boards for about as long as I can remember. The cables are cheap and fast to build. May be a little harder to solder and attach.
EDIT:
People who have ready access to custom PCBs do less moding or this sort because they often go right to custom PCBs with their design. I think that is where Krumlink was coming from. Context is everything.

Yes I did. Do a search for it. Should have been posted here somewhere. Anyway, if you've already done an LCD on PortA, you'll find that converting it to use PortB is trivial.
i The reason i asked about code is because i kind of blew my RA1 pin a while back but i got it to show some jibberish on the LCD using RB3 but could not get it to sho good stuff...
When you build those perfboard breadboard adapters, what holds the pins firmly to the perfboard when you pull out? Is it just fatty solderballs on the backside? How well do they hold up to abuse?
3v0 that make so much sense but a little to late.. as i glued but ill make sure to make a note of the pinout on paper (print my image) and put it on desk to see all the time and remind myself
I might start making my own sometimes. I usually use Technological Arts adapters, but sometimes I don't have one around. You saw the AVR cable trick on my site? Hacksaw a bunch of smaller adapters out of one 50-pin TechArts adapter? They're nice adapters, but sometimes it would be good to just quickly make one.
