Thank you Melanie, that's great!

I'll give it a try as soon as I get a chance. It saves some expense, and a bit of real estate, and 1 PIC pin compared to the digital pot method. Very nice!

I'm already using the other PWM channel to drive a MOSFET for the backlight. I figured out how to do that several projects ago.

I'll give your circuit a test to make sure it works with my LCD before I commit to a run of boards, but it sounds like a very happy thing for my project.

Thanks ever so much for your help!
