Thanks it runs now but when I press return an error pops up saying "object does not exist at line 6".
I figured this meant I didnt create the object properly but Im sure I have.
Got any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

As a test, replace this...

Load Image "Cocuments and SettingsDaniel PayneMy DocumentsMy PicturesSky.png",1

...with this...

Load Image "Sky.png",1

... and place a copy of sky.png in the same directory as your exec file.

I've seen some other folks have problems with spaces in file names and this may be related. As a general rule, files should be local relative paths because you never know where the user will install their program and its resources.

Also, without some wait or loop at the end of the program it will immediately finish execution and return.
