Hello Hansknec,

H>Thanks Edward, but there is still something that seems unclear to me. You are calling this a subroutine, but there seems to be no method of passing a variable into it<<

In PBP, you do not pass variables to subroutines...It is not like C and C++, or Variable passing in 3rd and 4th generation langauges. they are basically all global... Take a look at the LookUp command in the PBP manual:

You can simulate much of LCDout command manually, but that means keeping track of Commands and Data Writes. (which is easily done).
Other than that... using manual LCD control (without LCDout) is not done that often, except by folks who need to so such things, and those who like to re-invent the wheel... ;-}
