Hello all, I am attempting to implement a simple login/password protected mobile stack. My original understanding was that variables canot be saved on stack closing so if you want a password or high score you have to write to an external file. Then i recently learned that global variables are saved ...

okay I tried it and it can't make it work. I'm trying hard to learn through experience without just asking you guys to do it for me but I'm having problems with this one. I think its something to do with how and where I declare the variables. Is it possible to explain where i would store my variable...

I am attempting to "answer" with a random from a list or an array
What would the syntax to access an array and select a random key look like?

I will definitely be trying to learn all aspects of LiveCode but IMO I learn better figuring stuff out as needed...

Thanks for the response Klaus, I appreciate the helpful link. I neglected to mention in my previous post that I am not afraid to work and learn. I am not asking for all the answers. I am hoping that using the description of what I intend to do someone could tell me what I should be working towards. ...
