I have a window called "Untitled" I have a string docwin$ = "Untitled" I also have this: num = 1 I'd like to do this: wintitle$ = docwin$+num But that's Illegal I am using FB^3 What I am trying to gain doesn't use a random number generator, I am trying to get it so when the window is first built it's window title is "titlename "+ the number 1 if that window get's closed the next windows go on in order for example if 1 was closed 2 would come up: "titlename "+ the number 2 Here is my code so far: LOCAL FN buildWindowClass1 stringt = "Untitled " n = 0 n = n +1 title$ = "Untitled "+n WINDOW _windowClass1,title$,( 32, 59)-( 595, 457), 1033 string1$ = "Use common HTML formmating (<B> BoldText </B>)" TEXT _Times,12,_boldbit%:COLOR=_zRed EDIT FIELD _EF1WClass1,string1$,( 4, 4)-( 544, 379), 4,_leftJust TEXT _Times,12,0:COLOR=_zBlack END FN It doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Brian Heibert
