Initialization of 20x4 lcd...

I want to connect 20x4 lcd to 8051.
I am using the same .asm code which i used for 16x2 lcd.
It is displaying the data but the first line is cont. on the third line & second line on fourth line.
Is initialization code same for both the lcd ?, i.e 38h , 0ch , 01 , 06 , 80h ,0 ...

It is displaying the data but the first line is cont. on the third line & second line on fourth line.

Yep, the initialization is same as 16X2 LCD, the third line is the continuation of first line and fourth line that of second line.

first line address : 00h to 13h
second line address : 40h to 53h
third line : 14h to 27h
fourth line : 54h to 67h
