The Examplego ahead and try itIf you've tried it twice once by using the enter key and once by using the Press button you'll notice you get two different results. That's because I've assigned two different expressions to the dynamic text box. But thats for later on Lets work on some basics first. <%BK%> Input Text
 The Dynamic Text blockJust as Before,,,
Take a break breathe let it all soak in. Here comes the last part. <%BK%> Back already? Well okay I'm sure you want to get this stuff done with. Our ButtonCreate Select the object you want to act as a button. (text shape anything but the input or dynamic text.you've just created.
 Go back to the stage view and test your movie So where did all that other stuff come from? And how can I do that? When you use a variable in an expression you simply include the name. When however you wish to use Text or what the rest of the programming world refers to as a String you encase the expression in quotation marks. When "1"+"1"="11" Concetation is when strings and or variables are joined.it is not intended as a mathematical formula simply a means of bringing two or several strings and or variables together Such as MyVar1 add" some stuff goes here." +MyVar2 add" more Stuff"; About the Enter Key,,,,, If you wish to use a keypress function you may.... Use the Event Button>On kepress<"enter"> Where to go from here. Once you get the hang of dynamic text expressions and input text it is much easier to digest things such as Loading and sending variables.creating mathematical equations and dancing with squirrels. Why the stuff about not making dynamic/input text a target? When you make any object a target you change the nature of the object it now becomes wrapped in a sprite. Which is why if you made your text objects target you recieved and error in the debug stating cannot find target. "targets" are great for simplifying draggable objects or when you simply want to load something such as a movie into a rectangle. However for the most part many of us are simply used to converting objects to sprites for the added benifits they bring. If you associate dynamic text (as in the case when you want it to be a target) with a variable meaning have a different name for the variable then the text object. Personally I see it as one more step that really is never absolutely required When you do associate dynamic text with a var name the two cannot have the same name. Still struggling? here's the SWI
