Difficulty with second LCD menu

I have a situation where my first LCD menu works fine, but the second menu tree displays gobbledy-gook and Japanese characters, and I cannot figure out why.

Has anyone else seen this problem or know what I'm doing wrong? My code is very similar to Jon Williams' code in NV62 on Menus.

Thank you,

Phil

    Sorry, I just haven't changed the header, it is my code (from his example).

    I've come to a solution, what I've added to the second menu is the following

    char = DDRam + Line1
    GOSUB LCDcmd

    This puts me back at the start of the first line of the LCD. What puzzles me is that this was not needed on the first menu. Now I've added it to my ClearLCD subroutine so it is at the start of every menu, and the only downside is the time hit every cycle for this command.

    Thanks,

    Phil
