    Hello all. As W7AMI suggested, I have tried filtering the supply and I have changed the cable to shielded pairs but no luck. Darrel I have installed the Highjack routines and also included the LCD_Anypin.pbp and VirtualPort.bas in the PBP folder. I then added the Include file in my main program just below the define Parameters.

    INCLUDE "LCD_AnyPin.pbp"
    I am using MicroCode Studio and when compile is run I get the error
    Line 87:Bad expression. (LCD-AnyPin.pbp)
    The LCD_AnyPin file is opened and the line LOW LCD_RS : HIGH LCD_E is highlighted causing the error. I have included two images. The green Display is connected on the short cable and the Blue Display is connected to the long cable. As you can see blue is not displaying what the green is and the character on the blue display is constantly changing.
