since ralf already showed you how to fix your dilemma,
i won't, but instead, i'll welcome you to the world
of computers and programming.  You mentioned you've
been only using computers for about a year, have you
done any programming yet? If not, Euphoria may very
well be the _best_ language to learn to program with.
It's a fantastic teaching/learning language.
And it's quite fun, and extremely powerfull.

Hopefully, you have been getting the listserv for
the past week or so, as Alan Tu has been authoring
a rather nice introduction to Euphoria and programming
in general.  Please let us know if you haven't seen
those messages, and I'm sure one of us can resend
them to you.

Another thing good for starting out, take some time,
sit down, and slowly, carefully, read RefMan.Doc.
Do not worry if you don't grasp the entire file
right off.  Heh, very few of us, including the
experienced programmers of the group, fully
digested the sublety on first read.  But it's
very helpfull to read that file first, then
begin working with the David Gay "beginners
guide to euphoria" tutorial.

As an anecdote, my wife, who has had very little
programming experience, worked with that tutorial
and became able to 'tinker', if you will...

Enjoy, have fun, ask questions, and one day, you'll
be the one answering questions in this forum...

take care--Hawke'
