cursor position will be by default always where next character to be displayed

if you want A then its goint to overwrite the letter everytime

I do not Know Much 8051 But i tell you how i did id in avr

 

Suppose  this is 16 x 2 Lcd

 

        Address of First box  on first Line is 0x80              # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #

         Address of First box  on first Line is 0xC0            # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #

Before Main Function

 

char colmn[2]={0x80,0xC0};

void SetCursor(uint8_t x,uint8_t y);      \ X=Row     Y= Colmn

int main()

{

---

to go Specific Location 

SetCursor(4,0);  \4th box in first line

 SetCursor(4,1);  \4th box in second line

---

}

void SetCursor(uint8_t x,uint8_t y)

{

SendCmd(colmn[y]+x);

}
