ok lets revamp this a bit

my problem i will show with the actual code i am using so that i can get some help

this is a bit from my main file



please note that there is many more lines than that but i dont want to post it all, now onto the second file



please note i have left out heaps of the code and if you need anything else just say so.

I dont know whats wrong but whenever i try to do anything in the subs in the include file it wont do anything. I think it might have something to do with the amount of gosubs there are (i hope its not).

Any help is appreciated...

When you include another file, that file gets added to the end of your source code and does not get inserted at the #include statement.

For example, main.dba:


Other.dba:


this will become:


As you can see, the 'i = 5' bit of the code never gets executed.
