MSP430F2370 Timer CCIFG not resetting

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2231

Hello,

I am using TimerA to implement a software UART but when CCIFG is set to 1 in TACCTL0 I assume that it has entered that interrupt, however during the interrupt I do TACCTL0 &= ~CCIFG to reset it back to 0, but it does not reset so I'm not sure if its actually entering the interrupt even though the flag is set. Can anyone help?

Here is the code:
