no text on LCD

so far so good untill i select quick build.
it says (no.asm file)
do i have to upload the file to it somehow?

Make sure the window that is showing the .asm file is 'highlighted' (has the focus, active, whatever you want to call it), then click the quick build menu option.

its definatley highlighted as the cursor is flashing,
but still shows(no .asm file)
