Hey... To all u pros out there, this'd probably turn some heads and even make ya slap yerself; but hey, I'm a newbie, I'm trying to learn only my second programming language. So don't flame me if this question is so basic to all o you!

Whenever I try to compile a small amount of code, it will always tell me it could not close the nest. I looked all over the help files (and take note, this is the demo version, the full version I've ordered and is on its way) and I can't find crap!

Something like this will cause the error you discribe:

For i = 1 to 10
print i

because of the missing "next" command

For i = 1 to 10
print i
next i

check that your "for loops" end with a "next"

...In fact, you will get this error if you do not close the following loops

Do
Loop

Repeat
Until <condition>

While <condition>
endwhile

So you will have to check these also.
