I want to display data read from UART on 16×2 LCD with MikroC compiler & PIC16F877A microcontroller …
In my program I am sending data through USART terminal of MikroC, it is receiving correctly on virtual terminal in Proteus but not displaying on LCD.
Please check the code written in MikroC
```
sbit LCD_RS at RB0_bit; 
sbit LCD_EN at RB1_bit; 
sbit LCD_D4 at RB2_bit; 
sbit LCD_D5 at RB3_bit; 
sbit LCD_D6 at RB4_bit; 
sbit LCD_D7 at RB5_bit; 
sbit LCD_RS_direction at TRISB0_bit; 
sbit LCD_EN_direction at TRISB1_bit; 
sbit LCD_D4_direction at TRISB2_bit; 
sbit LCD_D5_direction at TRISB3_bit; 
sbit LCD_D6_direction at TRISB4_bit; 
sbit LCD_D7_Direction at TRISB5_bit; 

char gps; 
void main() 
{ 
  Lcd_Init(); 
  Lcd_Cmd(_LCD_CLEAR); 
  Lcd_Cmd(_LCD_CURSOR_OFF); 
  Lcd_Out(1,1,"log"); 
  Lcd_Out(2,1,"lat"); 

  UART1_Init(9600); 

  here: 
    if (UART1_Data_Ready() == 1) 
    { // if data is received 
      gps = UART1_Read(); 
      delay_ms(100); 
    } 
    Lcd_Out(1,6,gps); 
    Delay_ms(2000); 
    goto here; 
  }
```

It is not a good practice to use goto statements in your programs.

Try like this to display UART data on LCD :
```
void main() 
{ 
  Lcd_Init(); 
  Lcd_Cmd(_LCD_CLEAR); 
  Lcd_Cmd(_LCD_CURSOR_OFF); 

  UART1_Init(9600); 

  while(1)
  { 
    if(UART1_Data_Ready()) 
    { 
      gps = UART1_Read(); 
      Lcd_Chr_Cp(gps); 
   } 
 }
```

Can you please send the program for USART with lcd without function oriented.

Dear Dona,

Kindly open a new topic for asking your doubts.

You can see our complete UART code in the following article.
