Exactly what I plan on doing. Since each line is usually somewhat less than 16 characters, though, I want to have some leading spaces to bring each line to the center of the display. I'll just...

I suppose I could store each message without spaces, then write a unique "stop character".

Then I could just count the characters to the stop character, then calculate the number of spaces needed...

Love the idea, unfortunately, the messages are ALL different. Some have similar parts, but not similar enough to make that viable.

That's the reason for LOTS of messages.

Thanks All! That helped a lot.

I love this forum, there's always somebody who's smarter than me willing to help. :biggrin:

I had sorta thought about that..........but I've always wondered how you tell what memory is not going to be used for the program. I always make the code non-relocatable when asked, but how do...

I have a BUNCH of 16 character messages (25+) that are to be displayed on an LCD. A master sends a command to a receiver (via RF) to light certain LED's, beep a piezo, and display various messages...

That's what I was afraid of..........guess there's an I2C EEPROM in my future!

I am using a 16f687 for a project. The datasheet says it has 2048 words of flash program memory and 128 bytes of SRAM.

If I use the following commands to make an array:
