I am new to the BASIC Stamp Editor. I was asked to add a movement to a prop that has two Prop-1 boards and a sound board.
Is it possible to upload the current program and modify it? I have just recieved a trainer kit and was able to play a little, but I couldn't find a way to upload. I don't have a copy of the original program to start with. I was told the original builders of this prop have parted ways and are not around anymore.
Thanks,
Buzz

No, you cannot upload the program from a Prop-1 or Prop-2 for editing.  The BASIC Stamp IDE compiles the text program to form of machine code (called byte codes) that is used by the interpreter -- there is no decompiler for these byte codes; you'll need to obtain the original source or reverse engineer the program that's in place.
