yeh.. if you have no real programming experience, or just even no experience with db/dbpro, just play around with text functions.. try writing out different programs, and understanding them!
for example, the first program i ever wrote i coppied out of a book. it was for QBasic but i explain it here.. try and change some of the parmeters, lines, etc..
rem this is my first program
rem it is called 'computers never make mistakes'
b=1
print "hello"
input "type in a number? "; a
c = a + b
print "I think the number you typed in was: "; c
print "press any key to exit"
wait key
end
try reading the tutorials, and the help/examples that come with DB/DBpro too, as they can be extremely useful
