Hi I start yesterday to translate all the samples of the book Beginners Guide To DarkBasic Game Programming. If some one wants to help, "Bienbenido Sea" (You are welcome, in Spanish).

I allready workaround some problems as a Begener, but one of the things I can't get its whit the dbPrint, this trying to print from a Integer value.

Some thing Like:

int MyAge = 10;
dbPrint ("My Age is "),MyAge;

It copile ,don't guet any errors, but in the output screen i only guet the String "My Age is". Some one Knows how to doit.

Try this instead:

int MyAge = 10;
dbPrintC("My Age is ");
dbPrint(MyAge);

This has also uncovered a missing command from the documentation - the dbPrintC command.
