Working with a PIC18f8680 Micro. Using the MPLAB v8.92 IDE.
I am having issues with getting the value ln_Volts and ln_Tenths to print to the LCD.
the latest error is c:39:Warning [2054] suspicious pointer conversion.

Why are you trying to cast a string to an int pointer on that line? That is indeed suspicious.
