first of all as you named to the files is wrong it doesn't affect on your programs but main.h file that is header file should contain all declaration part that is variable declaration and function. and main.c file should contain all function and same in case of lcd.

ok. where you have define __delay_ms() function. is it from library?

and
Code:
Error   [800] lcd pic.as; 998. undefined symbol "__delay"

compiler this give warning means you have used _delay instead of _delay_ms().
plz check this one.
post you full code in zip.
 

I also faced this same problem .. There was problem in compiler I think so..

check weather it is working or not delay using for loop..

Hi embpic,

i solve it by replace the __delay_ms(1000) into __delay(1000)

Thanks
