				| Program PIC to interface 2x16 LCD using C code & LCD.c |

				| Am using PIC 16f72 and PIC 16f877. Working on it for my project. Using C language for programming. Now I need to program my chip to interface a 2x16 LCD.
 Wrote a simple code to display a "Hello" message.
 Oops... it didn't work. Included the program below.
 Nothing is wrong with my LCD module, chip and programmmer (ICD2) and pin connections are correct.
 Using MPLAB IDE and CCS C.
 Before burning, I included the LCD.c file under other files.
 Please guide me in this concern to rectify the error.

				| Not all LCD modules are the same.  Some things to check are: Do you need to wait a certain amount of time after power-up before
 doing anything?  Are the delays in the code enough?  Does your LCD
 require any different or extra initialization commands?  Are you sure you
 have your contrast/backlight correct?

 There is no need to post the code. Everybody using the CCS compiler already has it.
