    Question

    THANKS!! That does help. I have another question tho on LCD positioning:

    If I just say

    LDCout $fe, 1
    LCDout $fe, 2
    LCDout " Hi There"

    It shows up as

    "re" on the first line of the display... I have to add a bunch of

    LCDout $fe, $10, $10, $10, $10, $10

    to get it to move over... Why is this think thinking the edge of the screen is so far OFF the screen to the left??

    what about if you use only
    LCDOUT $FE,1,"Hi there!!!"


    add a pause 2000 at the begining of your code?

    And now remove those DEFINE LCD_COMMANDUS and DEFINE LCD_DATAUS???

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

    Had the delay between commands at 500.. Switched to 2000 and it seems to have fixed it.. Where is it waiting for TWO SECONDS to do anything??

    It appear that some LCD brand need big start-up delay. try decreasing it to PAUSE 1000.
