Code:
Const char IDNr[] = {"hw:2.00 / fw:1.20"};

Look at #org in the help.

I've used something similar to the code shown in this post.

The location is usually the last implemented registers.

Example for 12F629:
Code:
#ORG 0x3D0,0x3DF
const char build_rev[] = {"Rev 1.0"};   // max length = 15
#ORG 0x3E0,0x3EF
const char build_date[] = __DATE__;      // max length = 15
#ORG 0x3F0,0x3FF
const char build_time[] = __TIME__;      // max length = 15

...

printf("%s\nBuild: \%s, \%s\n\r", build_rev, build_date, build_time);

I dont understand I cant compile it when using the #ORG xx yy statement?
I get error...
I place the statement at the top of my main.c file.

This post has an example of where to place the #org statement
in your program:

Thanks, But wont work.

I use:
Code:
#org 0x300, 0x310
Const Char IDNr[] = "v1.0";


And get this error:
Code:
*** Error 71 "main.c" Line 444(0,1): Out of ROM, A segment or the program is too large    @const76
Seg 00300-00310, 0012 left, need 0022


Its the same error even if I change the #org addr space?

Post your PIC and your compiler version.

Also post the small program...

I believe this:
Code:
Const Char IDNr[] = "v1.0";

should read:
Code:
Const Char IDNr[] = {"v1.0"};


Your address looks pretty low too:
Code:
#org 0x300, 0x310


Normally you would place this at the top range of the code space.
