Thank u for you’re reply. The database I will use will just have the key words to found. The poison of the word will make a code such as 3978 meaning what time is bus. With This one you could just put time bus. If the program needs more info or doesn’t understand it will say so and go back for more input. I’m use to basic where you put the info into key$ then word1$=word1$+key$ .I don’t remember using a for next loop for this. But I did for the database. This is quite some time ago so it’s hard to remember it. I have wanted to put this in euphoria for a while but it seems harder than basic .I seam to remember that I could put a whole sentence in one go in to a data base then it would against anther data base. Anyway thank for all help so far
While the previous responses were correct as far as what you can do for using get_key(), etc, they're not the easiest way to emulate that behavior. Take a look at the prompt_*() family of functions in get.e for an easier way to get a sentence from the user.
