I am getting an error that says the the parameter for Str$ does not match the "value" at line 22.


This is the last WriteString 1 statement.
I am getting this out of the Tutorials For DB Pro.
I think they should be reversed and placed in the same order as in the Read Statement, but I get an error that way also.
(I am using the DB Pro demo program until mine arrives.)
The following if the complete code that I have to this point. Maybe the problem is in the top somewhere..)

I notice they change the titles around in order between read and write but, that doesn't change the error message.

one thing that I think is wrong is that you might want to change
"Dim PlayeName$(10)" to DimPlayerName$(10)

Found that one and it didn't make a difference.
to me, it doesn't look right because the order of the data is reversed between the read and write.
I tried changing that and it didn't make a difference.
Maybe it has something to do with the way DBC and DBP look at these things.
I am new and don't know. I have seen some commands that make a difference in one and not the other.

In this code the PlayerName$() array is declared as PlayeName$() this causes the problem later on.

fix that typo and that code should compile.

Dim Hiscore(10)
Dim PlayeName$(10)
Filename$="HISCORE.DAT"
