store data in C lang..

Thanks for the reply. I would use the declared variable to check on the watch list.

Thanks everyone for the reply in the earlier post. The receiver able to receive the character i sent out on the transmitter by using watch window. Somehow, i need to display it on the LCD screen and show it out. I tried many times as i still not sure where went wrong. I am using PC0802ARS-AWA-A|LCD. This is the last part of the project and really grateful if this project can be done. Can anyone tell me what went wrong and correct my mistakes? Thanks!

}

I can't place the LCD_PRINT below PORT_Init (); and UART0_Init (); as it will not appear any character.
So i put a while loop as it will return back and capture the getChar and display but this is not the case.
The LCD_PRINT is working pefectly as i type 0x41 and it will appeared an A in the watch window.

At the moment, i was sending a character 'K' over to the receiver
//getChar=0x4b 'K' on watch window

Sorry, i will look clearly on the preview before i post out.

You didn't, did you?

The last 4 or so lines of code don't make sense to me, but I'm not going to spend any more time looking at it, just throw out a few questions.

Why are you reading SBUF when you don't know that anything is there? Shouldn't you look for RI or receive data ready first?

you while on RI==0? so there is where you wait for the next char? and then go back up and re-initialize everything at the top of the loop? Maybe I'm missing something, but that seems wrong.

Can you read out of SBUF twice? or does it clear the first time you read from it? I don't remember.

You're not doing anything with either of those variables anyway, except viewing them in the debugger. How does that data get to the LCD?

Using a delay loop in a high level language is frowned upon.
