<< Hi all,

 Wonder if someone can help me. Im in the middle of trying to write a
 small program, but I cant figure out why I keep getting a error from
 MPASM on the following line.

 newlin  MOVLW   c0h

 This keeps on giving the following on compiling:

 Error   LCD_PHIL.ASM 289 : Undefined argument (c0h)

 Yet, the following line seems to compile OK:

       MOVLW   02h

 To me, it would seem that it is not accepting c0h as a Hex number to
 load into W. If that is the case then why. Else, what am I doing wrong ?

 TIA.

Philip,
Try 0C0H
Some hex numbers need a leading zero for the assembler to properly identify
it as a hex number.  Personally I like Motorolla's "$" indicator your number
would be $C0.  Easier to parse.
