Hello,

Sorry for the messy email message, I sent it from the webmail, and it has
an error :( I tried to send it from Outlook, but the SMTP server is not
functional at this time :( If you can view the message in HTML format it would appear correctly.
The code is written in C language for HiTech C Compiler, which is widely
used, so I didn't considered necessary to mention. The operations
for the initialisation of USART are basic, so the assembler code should be
no problem, considering that other code (for LCD and keypad) compiled
successfully.
Could it be any problem if I connected Tx to Rx to test the code ? I should get the characters sent back to Rx and from there to LCD, but nothing
arrives.

Lucian

It did :-)
Didn't the return mail had some clear-text error message ?  That
should have told you what you did wrong. And you must have done
*something* different with this mail, right ?

I have no idea what language you are using. it's clearly not
MPASM like. You don't say, and I'm not going to guess.

Maybe, but you can never be 100% sure before you have checked the ASM
code produced by whatever tool you uses. Then write a short "pure" ASM
piece of code that does the same thing, and debug from that.

Jan-Erik.

PS.
I'd sugest that you try to make sure that your lines are about 70
chars long, either by configuring your mail tool, or just simply
by using the ENTER key now and then. That makes your posts much
easier replying to...
