You could in theory, create a byte array to hold all the letters of the alphabet and then display them as groups of individual letter variables, you could. Or you could make individual variables representing words like stop go start etc. Many roads to Valhalla.
Well thanks alot for the reply! I know there is always many a way to do one job when it comes to coding and im hoping by the help on the forums i can get a much broader variation on the methods i use!
So yes any ideas are very welcome
Especially if they come with little snips of code which helps me to understand

mister_e i tried that code and yep all good thank you very much!
Tommorrow night i shall play around with it some more and try to get different things when different buttons are pushed etc!
