Help with Training

[jcright]

I'm completely new to this filepro software. It's very different from what I'm accostomed to. Anyhow, I'm going through the online tutorial and I'm stuck! I'm under the section "How do I", under "Continuing Designing" under "Obtaining a Unique Number". In the tutorial, it says to insert a new If/Then line for line 1. The "Then" statement should read: gosub getnum ; display. When I go to save and check the syntax, it throws an error. Anyone know what's wrong?

Can you provide a little more information--
What version of filePro you are running?
On what operating system?
Also, what error message did you receive?

It sounds like you entered the first line and then saved it.  If this is what you did,
then you are getting a syntax error because there is no label called "getnum" only a gosub statement calling it.  Think of it as matched pairs, if you call something with goto or gosub, then the destination must exist as well.
