Try this.
From the manual:


LCDOUT $FE,1,“Hello” ‘ Clear display and show“Hello”
LCDOUT $FE,$C0,“World” ‘ Jump to second lineand show “World”

I would also add in a $FE,$80 to make sure you are at the first position of the 1st line.

i.e.

LCDOUT $FE,1 'Clear the screen
LCDOUT $FE,$80,"HELLO"
LCDOUT $FE,$C0,"WORLD"

Just think of your LCD as a battle ship game grid.
You have to say where you want your 'character/s' to land.

I always plan my LCD displays/Menus on a spread sheet that has the position address for each character.

Not sure how to display pictures in a reply yet so I have attached a bmp to show what I mean.

Just edit your code as already suggested and it should work....
