Study the code in the XLCD.h, you should have a XLCD.c file, study those files. That's the step to initialize the LCD. Never uses Proteus, so cannot help.

Do u include the header in your main .C include header and the .h file in the MPLAB before u start using it and compile it. After u compile it u should be able to get HEx file it success....
In proteus, put the controller u use.. put in crystal to ur controller power supply and connect ur LCD to it.. the right click ur controller load the hex file in it... your LCD should be able to display if no error occur.

Hey ,

Like 5 months ago I wanted to do a project with the lcd and I was going to use the same library as yours the xlcd but I didn't do the code successfully so I did the code with .asm assembly and it is very easy to do and you have full control of it.

If you need help on doing the project with assembly just tell me and I will give you some code that I made.
