This post is dead Problem has been solved


DBP

Alright heres the problem i am making a very nice little file browser and am using a sprite to load the text to the screen for easy scrolling
the checklist string is set to print 20 lines at a times in different collems witch then can be easily targeted using mouse pos and text width.
2 sprits at the bottom for scroll bar i is background none mobile and sprite (scroll#) witch is the the scroller. it is set to move -169 lines incremented witch will set the next columb at the starting point for reading. the total number of coulums specified buy the page# command
with each new columb that is scrolled +20 must be added to the checklist to tell it to point to the new columb

The Problem
its getting the +20 to be added relative to the sprite x(2) command


Don't know if you can help me but if your willing to try i would appreciate it

I would not have phrased the check like that, because not is not a logic operator in the sense you are using. It is a bitwise operator and as such it is not appropriate for the use you are intending.

Try this line instead and see if it works for you:
