When i program something other then DO or LOOP in DBP, the screen doesn't show up when i run the program. Anyone know why this is? I have an okay graphic card that should support it. It did before. I just reformated my computer due to a hacker, and now it stopped working (DBP). Thanks.

BTW, have Direct X 9 and everything needed to run DBP

Do

Loop

Runs the program and it does nothing... I can see the black screen

Text 20,20,"Hello!"

Do

Loop

Runs the program and it's an invisable window

Do
Make Object gfdgtnhjrt,1,1,3,5,"FeGrcefgT"
Loop

Doesn't really matter, cause either way an error message is gona come up


Anyway, basicly it runs but i see nothing (not even a window). They only thing that works is sound.

when using DO and LOOP

it runs everything within the command OVER AND OVER again until you press escape. Once you press escape it kills the program and will not run the others.

You need to put commands INSIDE the DO and LOOP.

Like:

do
text 20, 20, "Mattman for President"
sync
loop

You use SYNC to tell the the program to redraw the screen, in this case, draw 'Mattman for President'

A complete example would be something like this:

SYNC ON
SYNC RATE 0

DO
TEXT 20, 20, "Mattman for President"
SYNC
LOOP

copy and paste that into DB and see what happens
