PIE1bits.CCP1IE=1;
PIR1bits.CCP1IF=0;
CCP1CON=0x05; /* Capture mode is selected for detecting Rising edge */
CCPR1=0x00; /*CCPR1 is capture count Register which is cleared initially*/
TMR1IF=0;
T1CON=0x80; /* Enable 16-bit TMR1 Register,No pre-scale,use internal clock,Timer OFF */
TMR1=0;
TMR1ON=1; /* Turn-On Timer1 */
while(1)
{
while(!(PIR1bits.CCP1IF)); /*Wait for Interrupt flag which is generated when edge is detected*/
PIR1bits.CCP1IF=0;
data1 = CCPR1; /*Copy count of 1st edge detected*/

while(!(PIR1bits.CCP1IF)); /*Wait for Interrupt flag which is generated when edge is detected*/
PIR1bits.CCP1IF=0;
data2 = CCPR1; /*Copy count of 2nd edge detected*/

if(data1 < data2)
{

/*Calculation for Frequency Measurement*/
signal_period = data2 - data1;
Frequency = ((float)f_timer / (float)signal_period); /*Count for 1 cycle*0.5us gives period */
sprintf(frequency_Hz,"%.3f ",Frequency);

LCD_String_xy(2,0,frequency_Hz);

}
TMR1=0;
memset(frequency_Hz,0,20);
}
}

this is the code which measure Frequency of the input signal and display it on 16x2 LCD. I want to convert this code from mplab to mikroc .But i mikroc when i declare TMR1=0; it shows error.How i can overcome this problem??

You need to look up what mikroc calls timer 1 and whether you can write all 16 bits at once or whether you need to split into two 8 bit writes.
I don't know mikroc so I can't comment on the correct solution.

MikroC isn't an ANCI standard C compiler You'll need to get rid of all the includes and rename all registers that are not in "their" format.

TMR1 as Albert said is a 16 bit write... MikroC will have their own way of doing this.

NOTE** Your title mentions timer0??
