    this is a very compliceted thing to do.

    i do not thnik a 8051 can do the operateon? may be you have to put the code in to the EEPROM.

    ..... talks in general about special cases

    downloading to a '51 can be everything from impossible without major investment to simple and free.

    choosing a JTAG or UART ISP chip makes downloading a breeze (and cheap or free), choosing a non-ISP chip requires major investment in a parallel programmer. Inbetween you have the ARghmel "SPI programming" that everybody builds and fails with instead of spending $25 for the ARghmel 'cable'

    No - it has nothing to do with the Compiler.

    It is the uVision IDE that proivides the option.

    But, what uVision provides is just an interface that allows you to call some 3rd-party tool.

    So, what you need is some tool - with a command-line interface - that will load a hex file into whatever target you have.

    Once you have got that tool working from its command line, you just have to configure the corresponding settings into uVision - as described in the Manual:

    See also: http://www.keil.com/appnotes/docs/apnt_159.asp
    The details will almost certainly be different for your particular target, but the principles remain the same - including the use of the Key Sequences...

    before you try to download from uVision, make the tool you choose (USB/JTAG/RS-232-SPI - whatever matches your situation and chip) write the program to your board.

    Trying to integrate before you have the tool working as a standalone is sheer folly.
