What's the simplest way to get the calculator to display some text when I need it to do so?

You can also do Output(y,x,text) if you want to control location. Damn....I miss coding up stuff in math class :tear:

Output(y,x,"text")
else it'll call the values from the letter matrix/archive instead of showing a word.

You have to use the top function keys to sort through the list and pick it out. Its something like F1 then More a couple times and then F5. And I think its only in the context sensitive menu to the programming screen.

I had a couple friends who wanted me to program their 86s and I hated every minute of it. 83 was much easier.

I can't find it in the menus. Here is what I have:

F1: Page Up
F2: Page Down
F3: I/O
F4: CTL
F5: INSc (arrow pointing right)

F5 is something called INSc with an arrow pointing to the right of it, but when I press F5 nothing happens.

Try pushing MORE which is near the arrow keys. Might try F1 or F2. Its been like 10 years so I barely remember.
