1. Stop trying to use the icons, you look like a newb that doesn't know how to use the edit link.

2. PRINT has no provision for scrolling down.

3. You have to place all of your strings into an array and then display the lines of data via the TEXT command which has greater placement control for strings. You can then trap the up and down arrow keys in a program loop, update an array offset, clear the screen, and re-display the text.

BASICally YOU need to go to France and take a lesson from a Mr. Piarray Mani Pulacion. He will teach you all that you need to know.

Maybe you should say the Basics of BASIC instead. And your screen name is annoying. Get rid of those uppercase characters.

And you can put some extra effort to make a scrollbar for added aesthetics.
