I finished my program and there a 2 problems

1)Err: Arguement resulted in it drags me to this line of code
:Menu("Charge?","+1",P1,"+2",P2,"+3",P3,"+4",P4,"-1",N1,"-2",N2,"-3",N3,"Home",99,"Info",91

2)When I go to another label in the executed program, there is text from the previous label text on top of the current label text
I don't think its my code
Can you please use SourceCoder to post the code from your program in this topic? Remember to copy and paste the full code from the "Forum BBCode (phpBB)" box. The problem with your menu is that you have 9 items in the menu, but since the Menu is 8 lines tall, and the title takes 1 line, you can only have up to seven items in the menu. As far as solving your second problem, it would help to see some code.
I don't think you've shown me how to do that yet

1) Go to http://sc.cemetech.net
2) Upload your .8xp file
3) Hit the Parse File button
4) Click the gray downward-pointing arrow next to the name of your program on the next page
5) Scroll down, hit the gray downward-pointing arrow next to "phpBBCode:".
6) Copy the code in that box to a post here

Under Lbl P1, P2, ..., N1, you need a ClrDraw. Alternatively, and this is the better option, just switch ClrDraw and Lbl 00. This way, every time you reach Lbl 00, you will ClrDraw and be ready to display text again on a blank screen. Makes sense?
It worked, thanks so much
I just added ClrDraw under everyone of my labels and before the text

No no, that's the unoptimized way to do it. Since you always visit Lbl 00 before any of the other labels, you just need a single ClrDraw under Lbl 00, and then you can omit it at all the other labels.

u mean like that?
Yup, That should definitely do the trick. Am I correct?
yep it did, now to move onto my polyatimic ion program

Sounds good. I don't love the masses of Text() commands; I feel like you could optimize those a bit, but let me not overwhelm you with optimization tips when you just started programming.
