    Hello mcbeasleyjr,

    I think you might need to give us more information. Otherwise, you may just get answers like this:

    Code:
    adc_result = adc_result * 10 '10mA per value of adc_result
    lcdout $FE,1,#adc_result," mA"

    Smile simple

    you know... looking at that, i always try to make things complicated... lol. from what you've posted here i realize that whatever the value of the adc is it will multiply it by the 10mA and give me the answer i need. i thank you for that. eliminates all those annoying if statements.
