When I type in.... LOAD BITMAP "floor_m_07.bmp",1 it comes up.....
IMAGE DOES NOT EXIST

But when I don't put the... ,1 at the end, the picture is displayed.

I am pretty new to all this, but I guess I will need the image number for later purposes, so is there a way to stop that IMAGE DOES NOT EXIST message from coming up?

Any help is much apprecated.

Ali,
Please, please, please, stop answering people's Questions... You really don't help at all.

Kevin,
You have to make sure that the image is in the same directory as the exe.

If it isn't, then you can use the Set Dir$ command, or, just add the sub folder onto the start of the bitmap name.
such as: "media/mybitmap.bmp"

If that isn't the problem, I explained a method to solve this just yesterday, here:

I've sorted 1 problem out thanks to JessTicular.
The other problem I have is this:-

How would I put a DIM array together, or a READ, DATA file, so that I can access a particular string within that file.

An example:

READ object$
DATA "Key","Torch","Gun","Rope","Dagger"

PRINT object$ ????????

I want to be able to just print out 1 of those objects, instead of all 5, so is there something I am missing where the ??????? are.

Or could it be done using the DIM command.

Any help would be much appreciated.
