thx but it doesn't work... but if I were to do a if statement to bullet proof it? What would I use to see if the word has less then 12 letters? |

The one I showed only takes 12 characters from the keyboard buffer. The rest are left alone. If you want the user not to be able to type more than 12 characters, I suggest looking into: Input.getchar (). |
