The Cheeto

That seemed to do the trick, I replaced the dasm files that I got off of the tutorial, and replaced them with the ver. 2.20.07 files, and it worked perfectly As soon as I get ahold of the programming side of things, I gonna try to make a few basic games myself, I took a 2 week course in visual basic programing at my vocational school(they made us take all of the classes for a couple weeks before they let us go to the cass we signed up for, but I wasn't complaining ) and hopefully some of that will help out. edit for great typo justice

Thanks a lot for the help, but when I use Crimson Editor, it seems to work by showing > "C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\Desktop\Atari\dasm\dasm.exe" "C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\Desktop\Atari\dasm\clock003.asm" -f3 -o"C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\Desktop\Atari\dasm\clock003.asm.bin" > Terminated with exit code 0. But then after that, I cant find the resulting .bin file in the dasm folder. I made sure to configure the tool like you instruceted, I even copied and pasted the code you posted after it didn't seem to work the fist time just to be safe, but it still just gave me the same thing.

What happens is when I run DASM, It shows the sourcefiles options menu and after that it goes back to the c:/Docume~1/HP_ADM~1> as if it wants to run another program, so I put in the line, but it keeps saying that dasm is not recognized as an internal or external command.

I was following one of the tutorials on the site to basic steps for programing Atari 2600 games, and hit a bit of a snag. I try to open the DASM File and the command prompt opens for a second and closes back down, so then I tried to open command prompt and then run it from there, but when I ran it, it just showed the menu, but I couldn't figure where to go from there. I tried to put in the line "dasm clock003.asm -f3 -oclock.bin" as per instructions(and I made sure to put the clock003.asm file in the same one the dasm program is in), but it didn't work. I've been looking all over the site for how to use the DASM program, but I haven't found it, does anyone know what I could be doing wrong?
