Can we suppress leading zero's in LCDOUT?

At my best guess, this is what you are asking.

You need the print always to the right.

<font color="#000000">MYNUMBER <font color="#000080"><b>VAR BYTE
</b></font>MYNUMBER = <font color="#FF0000">0

</font><font color="#000080"><b>ADCIN </b></font><font color="#FF0000">0</font>, MYNUMBER


<font color="#000080"><b>LCDOUT </b></font><font color="#FF0000">$FE</font>, <font color="#FF0000">$83


</font><font color="#000080"><b>IF </b></font>MYNUMBER &gt; <font color="#FF0000">99 </font><font color="#000080"><b>THEN 
    LCDOUT DEC3 </b></font>MYNUMBER <font color="#000080"><i>' three digits + &quot;-Dingles&quot;

    </i><b>ELSE 
       IF </b></font>MYNUMBER &gt; <font color="#FF0000">9  </font><font color="#000080"><b>THEN    </b><i>' one space + two digits + &quot;-Dingles&quot;
          </i><b>LCDOUT </b></font><font color="#008000">&quot; &quot;</font>, MYNUMBER
   
          <font color="#000080"><b>ELSE
             LCDOUT </b></font><font color="#008000">&quot;  &quot;</font>,<font color="#000080"><b>DEC1 </b></font>MYNUMBER   <font color="#000080"><i>' two spaces + one digit + &quot;-Dingles&quot;

       </i><b>ENDIF
ENDIF

LCDOUT </b></font><font color="#008000">&quot;-Dingles&quot;

Ahh, I see. I was hoping there would be some compiler directive/keyword/function-switch to use in PBP, something like printf in C but this is fine, whatever works ...right?.

Since I need a posible 5-digit number perhaps turning the IF/THEN into a CASE statement would work here? something like this:

MYNUMBER VAR BYTE
MYNUMBER = 0
...
ADCIN 0, MYNUMBER
...
...
SELECT CASE MYNUMBER

       CASE IS > 9999
            LCDOUT $FE, $83, DEC5 MYNUMBER          ' 5 digits
       CASE IS > 999
            LCDOUT $FE, $83, " ", DEC4 MYNUMBER     ' 1 space and 4 digits
       CASE IS > 99
            LCDOUT $FE, $83, "  ", DEC3 MYNUMBER    ' 2 spaces and 3 digits
       CASE IS > 9
            LCDOUT $FE, $83, "   ", DEC2 MYNUMBER   ' 3 spaces and 2 digits
       CASE ELSE
            LCDOUT $FE, $83, "    ", DEC1 MYNUMBER  ' 4 spaces and 1 digit
END SELECT

PICn-It,

MYNUMBER VAR BYTE


With that, you can get max. 255.

Yes, good catch.

In my code, currently I can't figure out how to steady up the 10-bit ADC reading, so I temporarily REM'd those lines:

ADC_BITS 10
MYNUMBER VAR WORD

and temporarily put in:

ADC_BITS 8
MYNUMBER VAR BYTE

while I work out the display screens and presentation. The CASE statement based on your IF/THEN code posted above seems to work great, thank you.
