Seriously, by far the easiest way to get data from a PIC to a computer screen is to use the EUSART on the PIC (or bit-bash if there isn't a EUSART available).
That will send characters out in serial form on one of the pins. Then connect that to a PICKIT2. Install the PICKIT2 software on the PC and select the EUSART tool and the characters appear on the screen.
I've been all over my PICkit2, help, readme, etc., and for the life of me can't find the EUSART tool. Could you point me in a better direction?

Not much more to know.
Hi,
What version of PICkit2 software are you using? Check this v2.52.
This version of PICkit 2:

Here's what the UART Tool looks like:

They ship whatever version was current when that batch of disks was stamped. When they run out they'll order another batch with the newer current version on them. Soon that will be out of date, but the disks won't all be sold yet.Seems they would ship the latest version, doesn't it?

Every company does it. It costs money to get disks made. The more you can get made at once, the less you pay. Anyone who needs the latest version of the program can grab it off the interweb in seconds anyway.LOL! That coming from the company that uses last-minute updating of the product as a selling point for their MCU's.
