Compiling examples for PCB included w/mplab

I have PCM, but just d/l MPLAB 7.5, and was surprised to see pcb was included. I installed MPLAB, and tried to compile ex_rtc.c using pcb. I got the errors that there is an undefined or undeclared define set_tris_d, in the files lcd.c and kbd.c. sorry I didn't just cut and paste, but I was afraid my pcm was screwed up too, so I went back and setup for pcm to make sure it still worked. I don't understand how I'm supposed to use the pcb compiler. I use pcm, and don't have any problems. has anybody else seen this behavior or can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? It would be nice to use C to program the X56, etc, instead of using assembly. I tried the plug-in program, but I think mplab had already taken care of it, because the suite_ccsc.dll hadn't changed versions, but it is version 1.14 in pcm, but 1.15 in thirdParty/picc under mplab. I sorry if this is a really neewbie question, but I have used pcm and mplab since version 5 or 6 of mplab, and have never had a problem before. If you need more specific info, I'l be happy to recreate my disaster for you, and post it, but I thought I might be just missing something simple, and someone could help. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your help! I thought port d was strange, but I figured that the examples files included would compile. I saw that the devices file is shorter than the regular PCB, but again, I assumed... I know, when you assume... Thanks again for the reply, and I'll try somthing that is less i/o intensive
