Keypad interfacing problem.

I have designed a program in which i can set my desire set point by keypad. When i simulate this is work sometimes but sometimes it does not work. That means i can set my desire set point by trying more times. But every key is ok, they work all some times, When i simulate my program i can see a meassage that simulation can not run due to excessive load. How can i solve this problem? Could anyone help me?

Hi,

Paste you work here and let's see where you went wrong! Enjoy!

This is my code. By this code i can set my desire set point by a keypad. But sometimes it does not work but all key are ok. Sometime it work properly by trying more times. When i simulate there is an error message that simulation can't run due to excessive cpu load. Where is my problem? Can anyone help me please? is there i have to declar #include<delay.h> function? I have not declare this in my program.
