I would expect some kind of warning from the compiler about the implicit cast from the char value to the pointer expected as the argument.  Do you have all the warnings turned on?

Well.. I thought so..  :)

Casting is something that I'm not up on yet.

Ah.. So the final form, since I was using LCD_Data_A as an
intermediate to see what was being passed, is:

for (i=0; 16 > i; i++)	{
  lcd_putc(pgm_read_byte_near(&(BootString[i])));
}

So since this is the address of the char, what was I passing it without the &?
