I suppose that's what you get when you sit down to look all this over by yourself and have no experience whatsoever... at least when you're me .

Thanks a bunch,

I am also from a rookie team, but I have had experience in Java so C is not as hard to understand. One thing you need to do is read the comments and reread them until you understand them or they are etched in you memory forever. Then the ones you still don't understand look up in a C programming book. Also, if you want, I am from Sterling HighSchool in the Houston area. You could come to one of our meetings if you wanted to see some programming and how it is done PM me and I will tell you how to get there.

P.S. Print out the poster of the user routines, it tells you what all can be modified and its colorcoded for dummies like me!!!
