How many people have told you to do something on the Vlcd pin, and you still have nothing? I gave you a pretty good explanation of a way to get going with just a resistor. Did you read it? Didn't believe it? You'll continue to get nothing until you do something to that pin. Afterward, you will at least see something, even if it's little gray rectangles. Unless you've blown the LCD. -Bob -- http://www.fastmail.fm - A fast, anti-spam email service. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
