what i was hoping to accomplish was to put the counter val into the 17th element of the array of type word.

but, it is only putting an 8-bit value and not a 16-bit value. i'm missing the high bits.

i need a small push here to help me get the 16-bit val into an element of the array.

Code:
Tst_Array  VAR word[20]
Counter    VAR word



FOR counter=0 to 65534
    Tst_Array[17]=counter
    gosub Print2LCD
NEXT counter
