Hi,

The free compiler only supports the 16F877, 16C554, 18F458 chips (for the normal PIC's).
Adding the header file, _will not add support for a chip_, and even if it did, sending you the file would be illegal.
If you want to use the compiler for another chip, you have to buy it. End of story.

Hi,

Is there a list that details the devices I can use with the CCS complier that comes with MPLAB IDE?

Thanks

CCS also has a free demo.

The compiler with MPLAB, is PCB. Supports the 12 chips. Pull down at the CCS homepage, Compilers, Devices supported, 'B'. However the version supplied is older than the current release, so will not do any chips launched in the last couple of years. Doesn't support the '10' chips.
I assumed the original poster already had the 'demo' version, since he seemed to be talking as if he had a compiler that did support 'some' 16 chips (which the 'B' version does not).
Once installed, the simplest way to see what chips are supported, is to look at the supplied .h files. Though these don't add support for the chips, one is supplied for each supported chip.

The 3.249 version of PCB that came with MPLAB does support a few of
the 10F chips: 10F200, 10F202, 10F204, 10F206
