    Are you sure LCD is OK?

    Is the RW pin on the LCD connected to the PIC, or is it grounded?

    Yes, when I plug it into another pic controlled unit I get both lines of verbiage expected.

    The circuit board has the RW line hard-wired to ground.

    Would it be better to re-post this Q over in the regular part of the forum since it's doesn't seem related directly to the LCD_Anypin extension? my thinking is it might be something peculiar to the 16F883 that someone may see and chime-in about.

    Schematic attached.
    (Note that in the code I'm not doing anythng with the sensor yet, and it's disconected from AN0 right now)

    Just curious why you have LCD Data on RB2,3,4 & 5. If you simply moved them up two pins and moves E and RS down, you could use the standard PICBasic product with no modifications. I can understand if you have a PIC which doesn't have four consecutive pins available on a port, but why go to all the inconvenience when there is no need?

    In your code above, you have MCLRE enabled.

    But in the schematic you don't have a pull-up on MCLR (Pin 1).
