Your correct CattleRustler (as usual)
I was just trying to narrow down his problem a bit.
His code is over 300 lines long and has several image files etc.

when you have taken the media files from the library,you end up getting a problem with the LOOP at the very end, or at least I am. It is telling me that the Image is missing so I was wondering if anyone could help me with that little problem, it's on the very last line.

P.S. The plot is set to be printed in the beginning so you can read the code for that if that is what you are looking for. I also have a lot of remarks in there to make it eaiser to figure out the problem

Remarks help, but indentation is better. That's going to be a long job to look through the code.

In addition, what is the actual error reported by the compiler? It'd help if we knew what we were looking for

But you should be able to debug without running the code.
I'd take at the code, but I'm not gonna take time to indent everything just so I can read it.

instead of:


just use:



As for your loops, they are the most messed up thing I've ever seen. I couldn't even indent the code properly because things are so out of place.

Here's what you got:



It should look like(im guessing):



I deleted like 2 or 3 "endif" statements because they didn't corespond to anything.

It looks like it should work, but what happened with the X?:

Fortunately, my indentation rules are a little more strict....



I don't know if this will solve the problem or not... because I'm not entirely sure I understand the problem in the manner you are describing it. Overall, I spotted one typo in the thing, nothing more.

Any truly great code should be indisguishable from magic.

The code you gave in your first post and the code in your screen shot are noticably different in the number of endif's just before the 'next X'

The code from your first post compiles without an error, once you find all the media...

sure it compiles okay, but play it, does it work? If so what are all the media files? It's odd because i think i have all of them.
If it works then I would appreciate it if you could tell me what all the media files are, it would help a ton.

Are you sure you've got all the media files in the same directory as the source file? and that you've saved your source file, cos it still compiles here.
