This Forum is Dedicated For all The Object Oriented PIC Lovers .......... The concept behind OOPic is straight forward. Use preprogrammed multitasking Objects from a library of highly optimized Objects to do all the work of interacting with the hardware. Then write small scripts in Basic, C, or Java syntax styles to control the Objects. During operation, the Objects run continuously and simultaneously in the background while the scripts run in the foreground telling the objects what to do.

Hey Richard. Thanks. That actually did work. I changed the port
assignment, despite the warnings from the OS, and the change took
place ok. I didn't even have to reboot. In addition, oopic IDE v.6
was able to find the serial cable alright, since it was now <= COM6.
I'll try the rebooting next to see if it stuck.
