    why is it that when i copy any of these text files and try to convert it in to a hex file it always shows up with lots of errors, about 60 errors each time.

    therefore i can not copy any of these files and download them on to the micro controller as it is not creating a hex file.
    But the code i have written shows with no errors anymore just warnings.

    am i doing something wrong?
    i normaly create a text file in notepad, then i use MPASM to convert the text file in to a HEX file, i then use PROGPIC 2 along with my velleman hardware programmer board to download on to the PIC, it has worked on other PIC such as 16F627 to create effects such as flashing LED's.

    i downloaded that file of yours mel, when an LED is connected between pin A0 and +5v it constantley flashes almost 1 sec on 1 sec off, all other data lines on the LCD are now grounded and a 10k pot between +5V and 0V with the wiper conn to V0 (contrast), adjustment of the pot varies the contrast but still no luck wit writing on lcd, still shows as 2 rows of blocks on line 1 and 3.
