Hi,

If I follow your post you are saying you cannot program a Pic with the Inchworm from Mplab - correct ?
If so, why not -what is going wrong ?

The Inchworm is a clone of Microchips ICD2 programmer /debugger so you select ICD2 from the programmer or debugger menus in MPlab.
Check out Bluerooms site for details of how to use it.

The Pickit2 / clone runs fine from MPlab, it also has its own stand alone program V2.61 which allows you to Import .hex files directly without Mplab.

Just search this forum for the many many entries for a Pickit2 clone.
You will also see Pickit2 Lite plans from Blueroom the makers of the Inchworm, versions with pcb are also around.
 

some compilers add a text to the hex file ,that won't support by some programmers( give error while open hex file ) , open your hex file and check and text starting with ; it found remove the line and try
 

Once you get the .hex file from any compiler, you should be able to program the PIC with that hex file through any programmer unless some extra information is added by the compiler as mentioned by "rajudp". PICkit2 lite which is a clone of the original pickit2, is tried and trusted worldwide which is freely available with all details on EDA forum.
Here is the schematic, PCB layout and codes required to make a PIckit2 clone



This thread with 11 pages too may help you.

Hi friend,

If you have MPLAB IDE and PICkit2 clone, then
for burn hex file,
Open MPLAB IDE program with none project OR empty project,
Go to Configure Menu ==> Select Device... ==> Here select your Microcontroller
Go to Programmer Menu ==> Select Programmer ==> Here select your PICkit2
Go to File Menu ==> Import.... ==> Here select your Hex file
Then
Go to Programmer Menu ==> Program.

Hope this is help you
