sss,
I understand that,but my code wasn't working so I reduced left down to basics to make sure my len(text)-1 command wasn't causing my problems.Thanks though.
Is the commands text.length and text.high and such documented?If so where at?I have trail version.
And I have another problem with same code.If I type letters all the way across the screen and use backspace to erase them,by first holding down a letter,then holding down the backspace,after doing this for about 5 or six times,I recieve the error.
unhandled exception:Attempt to index array element beyond length.
I've tried limitting my length like this.
still does it.The blue highlight is on Cls.
Thanks

Graphics 800,600 Global text:String Global a:Int Repeat a=GetChar() If a If text.length<10 text:+Chr(a) EndIf If KeyDown(key_backspace) text=Left(text,text.length-1) EndIf DrawText text,100,100 Flip Cls Until KeyDown(key_escape)
still does it.The blue highlight is on Cls.
