#61013 Hi and thanks very much for the replies. I will go and check on the arduino.cc forum, I just have the impression it's at least partly affected by the boards addon bit. I like the simplicity of the ide from the point of "build it, load it" all from one window but when things work with one version of the ide, and don't with another, I want to understand why. I found out what I do know from the verbose compiler output, and it is very helpful, but as a programmer I should be able to predict pretty much from the documentation what the result will be, not have to work backwards from the compiler output to guess what impact the changes to version x have been. I'm sure it is documented somewhere. Maybe I've just been spoilt by coming from a commercial background....

Thanks again for the replies, really are very much appreciated...,
