The four data lines (4 bit mode) have to be on the same port going from 0-3 or 4-7.
The othe two lines can be anywhere.
Example:

DEFINE LCD_DREG     PORTC
DEFINE LCD_DBIT     0
DEFINE LCD_RSREG    PORTD
DEFINE LCD_RSBIT    1
DEFINE LCD_EREG     PORTD
DEFINE LCD_EBIT     0
DEFINE LCD_BITS     4
DEFINE LCD_LINES    2
DEFINE LCD_COMMANDUS    2000
DEFINE LCD_DATAUS   50

This is all standard.
Darrel has a trick called LCD AnyPin that does as the name implies. Non standard

can i use something like
lcdout $fe, 1
pause 500
lcdout fan1 (a) fan2 (b)
if temperature =21 then let (a)=on and (b)=off
if temperature =23 then let (a)=off and (b)= on

Try something like
If temperature is whatever gotsub a subroutine.

cheers again have already wrote 4 subroutines for the various temperature fan states . just wondered if i could do it the other way will have a search for darrels ant pin routine
