Now that I have the LCD working, I am trying to proceed! I want to display the date, time, temperature that I had working in the VGA mode.
I'm having trouble coming to grips with the CTRLVAL(#x) command/function?
I have made a DISPLAYBOX #1, so assume the CTRLVAL(#1) will go there.
> ctrlval(#1)=12.4 from the manual (P85)
Error : Expected a string
> mytemp=tempr(1)
> ctrlval(#1)=mytemp
Error : Expected a string
> print mytemp
17

FOund the answer! Displaybox expects a tring. Numberbox is what I want.
