Hi all.
Attached is my program so far. It creates random codes for safe locks. =
What I am now trying to do is have a text file which is the instructions =
on using the safe. I want users to be able to edit this file and put in =
field markers.
In a nutshell I want to print a text file but replacing {1} with text =
from a feild1 in the program and replace {2} with contents of field 2.
Hope this makes sence, I have gone blank.
Or even a program in the archive that does this I can look at.
Thanks Tony

Tony,
Just to be sure, am I right in thinking that you want the same program which
creates the random numbers to print the file detailing how to use them? In
which case I would ask, is there some variable in that program which
*contains* the random numbers? If there isn't, (& I didn't see any), then
there should be, and you would use it while printing the text file.
Or do you want a separate program to hand input those numbers into, which
would then generate the instructions file?

Tony,
I'm not sure if I understood exactly what you wanted, but attached is a
possible partial solution, for the 3 number combination. I *think* I
indicated all my additions
with "--0" (sometimes at beginning, sometimes at end of line).
What I did was:
added a sequence, "theNumbers", to hold the randomly chosen numbers;
put the random numbers into it at the point where you displayed them;
made them show up on the status bar, for debug purposes;
made a new menu choice, "Make Instructions";
made a new procedure to respond to clicking on the new menu choice,
which outputs the text & the numbers, as I think you wanted them.
