Hi Im just wondering if i can get away without having to use a pin for the LCD_RW. Im using 4-bit data, and i have no need to use LCD_RW. I normally ground the LCD_RW pin and did not declare any pin for LCD_RW in Assembly, but the GCBasic Help mention that I should explicity declare the LCD_RW pin for Basic.
Im running out of IO on my PIC
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

Download http://gcbasic.sourceforge.net/newfiles/update.zip and then add this line:
#define LCD_NO_RW
Then you don't need to connect the RW pin
Great! Thanks a bunch
