I am using the PM3 programmer to programme in circuit using the PM3Cmd
and a SD MMC card to stor the code, buti am having problems loading
the code to the programmer from the card!!!!

You might be talking about the utilities I see in
MPLAB8\MPLAB IDE\Programmer Utilities
there I see folders called "PM3Cmd", "Procmd", and "Visual Procmd".
As far as I understand, they are for the Microchip PM3 programmer, which
we don't have yet.
Can I program my chips in-curcuit from the command line with my MPLAB ICD2 ?
Does anyone do it?

It is part of the MPLAB installation. There is a separate program only
interface program. It is supposed to have a command line.

Microchip gives you a command line programmer. BUT, not for the ICD2,
just the regular programmers.

I suspect that you can build a cable to go from their programmer to your
board and work that way, but give them a call/email to make sure.

As a PIC man for 30 years I would only use Microchip programmers.
These all run from MPLAB.
