That's easy. Use CT to clear the text if you have to, then use PR for
each item that you want to print in the text box. PR does a print,
which is a true "line" as "textitem" likes them.
Check PRINT and INSERT and CT in the Help system.

But how do set a textbox with two different things? If I set it to,
lets say, hat, it is hat. Then if I set it to dog, it is dog. Is
there a way to make it two things? How would I get the user to set
this password and username?

Oh, I see.
Put the username AND the password in the same text box. Each text
box will contain two lines. The first line is the username, the
second line is the password.
Then,
Put ALL your login textboxes on a different (not visible) page.
Name that page "logboxes" and come back to your working page. You
don't see the text boxes, but that's ok.
Then
to test
compare currentuser get "page1 "texts
end
to compare :user :listoftextboxnames
if empty? :listoftextboxnames [dowhatever stop]
if :user = textitem 1 first :listoftextboxnames
[checkpassword first :listoftextboxnames stop]
compare :user bf :listoftextboxnames
end
to checkpassword :textboxname
if currentpass = textitem 2 :textboxname [youreok]
end
to currentuser
question [username please]
op answer
end
to currentpass
question [pass please]
op answer
end
Note: careful when copying text from email to MW. Sometimes stange
delimiters in the text makes MW "not understand" what you typed.

the textbox, currentuser, would be set to the user the person
typed in in the question. so currentuser = log1 means the user the
person typed in when clicking on login equals the one he or she
set up.
thanks

Hi,
I would do something like:
to test
if currentpass = run word "log (last currentuser) + 1 [thendothis]
end
For example:
if currentuser equall log3, the procedure test will do the
following:
if currentpass = run log (last log3) + 1
or
if currentpass = run word "log 3 + 1
or
if currentpass = run word "log 4
or
if currentpass = run log4
or
if currentpass = whatever reports log4

Sort of. What I mean is that I dont want to do a new line for
each one,
if currentuser = log1 [thendothis]
when I do that, I have to make a new line for log1, when log1 is
created, and log2, and log3, and log4, and so on. If someone
creates a user, with the username as log1, and the password as
log2, I would do this.
if currentuser = log1 [if currentpass = log2 [thendothis]]
if currentuser = log3 [if currentpass = log4 [thendothis]]
if currentuser = log5 [if currentpass = log6 [thendothis]]
and so on.

Hi,
Not sure I understand, but if you mean:
How can I report the contents of a text box based on a variable
instead of the actual name, in order to avoid having ONE full
IF statement for each user?
Then the answer (or part of the answer) would be:
if currentuser = run word "log :n [thendothis]
word "log :n
will report something like
log1
running that will report the contents of the text box named
log1
Is that it?

this program works for creating two boxes, one with username,
one with password. I was stuck when trying to get it so that
they could login. I could make a question for user and pass,
and have a text box, currentpass , set to the answer of the
password question, and currentuser for the user question. If I
did this,
if currentuser = log1 [announce [logged on]]
stop
but this would not work in less I manually added if
currentuser = log1, if currentuser = log2, etc.
Is there any way to do this so when someone creates a new
user, I need to do nothing for it to work?
thanks

Hi!
Ho! I see the problem. Your text box is called LOG1 (or
LOG2...). So, the dynamic primitives (based on the text box
name) are:
SETLOG1
and
LOG1
So when you say
SETLOG
this corresponds to nothing.
You need to run something like SETLOG1
There are two solutions:
run se (word "settext 1) (word "" "bar)
That works, but it's awful Replace RUN by SHOW to visualize
what's going on.
Or, simpler:
tto word "setlog :n
ct pr answer
There you go! Yo seem to know what you're doing! Congrats!

Here is the code, given there is a button which does newuser

When I tried it, I had difficulty in getting it to set the
content of the text box. With the code below, when I tried
it, it said "I DONT KNOW HOW TO SETLOG"
to newuser :n
make "n nusern

Hum!
Sorry, not enough info to help you.
Can you write, in plain English (pseudo code), what your
button has to do?

Hi!
Sure!
Check onreadline in the Help, in the section about Text
boxes, or in
the
vocabulary.
Basically, you run (only once) an instruction such as:
onreadline "text1 "run
and the text box named text1 will "run" each line when you
type
something in
it and press Enter.
99% of people will do exactly that, but you may use any
instruction:
onreadline "text1 "fd (be sure you type only numbers in
that text box)
onreadline "text1 "go (that, being a procedure name)

I had heard that you could make a text box the command
center, so
typing
things in the text box will make it run programs just like
the command
center. How do I do this?
