Hi All
I would like to pronpt the user on my LCD for input ...
capture several key presses followed by a hash # signifying input is complete ...for example 123#
Display it on the LCD
Then transmit the number 123

I'm guessing something like
Code:
newkey   VAR     byte ' this would equal keypress1 , 2,3 etc

 Pause 500       ' Wait for LCD to startup

main:

Lcdout $fe, 1   ' Clear LCD screen
Lcdout "Enter key followed by #"  ' prompt user for input # denotes end of input
HERE"S where I'm struggling << how do i get the keypresses into one VAR
Lcdout "Input successful" 
SEROUT RX_To_PC, N2400, [newkey]
pause 2000
Lcdout "Code sent"

goto main
So would i alter (if I may and can) Steves keypad code to somthing like
Instead of the Serout in the program send the first keypress to something like
Key_Press1 then Key_Press2 then Key_Press3 etc ...
and keep doing it until a # input is observed ?

Is this possible ?

Any help would be appreciated

Kind regards

Dennis
