Hi,

If you can get your lcd to respond atleast then please tryout the following code. You will be surprised.

I post a little program here and would like you guys to try it out U N-E D I T E D. Please use the LCD Defines as your config. You can use a 16/20 characters display if you wish. Steve would you mind explaining I am a little too drunk.

MAIN:
LCDOUT $FE,1
LCDOUT "MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR 2007 "
LCDOUT $FE,$C0
LCDOUT "***FROM YOUR FRIEND SOUGATA IN INDIA****"
PAUSE 1000
LOOP:
LCDOUT $FE, $18
PAUSE 500
GOTO LOOP

Wow! Well done.

In the "LOOP:", let's go the other way: "LCDOUT $FE, $1C" - from the LEFT to the Right.

LMAO! Well even drunk you got it Take one of those...

Well explanation is easy, but i will make it simple and skip some information.

LCDOUT $FE,1
LCDOUT "MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR 2007 "
LCDOUT $FE,$C0
LCDOUT "***FROM YOUR FRIEND SOUGATA IN INDIA****"

There you fill the LCD memory/buffer...plahplahplah

LOOP:
LCDOUT $FE, $18
PAUSE 500
GOTO LOOP

For this one, open a HD44780 LCD datasheet, and find the 'Cursor or display shift' Register. Now, read the S/C bit information. You don't like the way it move, set the R/L bit.

EDIT: Yup Flotulopex, you got it!
