if [B][COLOR="DarkSlateBlue"]portA pin3[/COLOR][/B] = 1 then
   high 4

This is explained in Manual 1, Appendix E.

Thank you works ok BUT one more question i get an error when i try this

symbol G06a = pin6
symbol Jlfa = pin7
symbol G02a = portA pin3
symbol active = 0

I'm affraid you can't use PortA in a symbol definition. You could get close:

symbol G02a = pin3
'...
if portA G02a = 1 then ...

It's not a great solution but I think that's as close as can go on the 28X1.
