If i have an image for each number 1-9 (1.gif,2.gif..etc) and lets say I have a variable called number. In the variable number a random number between 1 and 300 will be stored. Now the part I dont know how to do is how would I print a number out on the screen with my images instead of just a normal number print. I could do it with a one digit number probably but with 2 or more digits I have no clue. Anyone know?

This is a little thing I wrote that is like what I want but like I said only single digit numbers. This only gives a random number from 1 - 6. Obviously it wouldnt be very convenient to do it this way from 1 - 300

That is still only for single digit random numbers. I need to know how to do it with big numbers. Like if the random number is 256 i need to print the images 2.bmp, 5.bmp, and 6.bmp side by side to display 256. I'm sure its possible since lots of games use images for scores etc instead of just printing the numbers.

sorry, I misunderstood. this code is for rnd 256. change the picwidth to match your bmp's. you should be able to use some of this.
