What is it you are trying to achieve?
I am trying to achieve on you you can get get the options and then have a button to go back with and how you can exit output screen when you press"3", i am confused :s

What is the problem you are having?
The problem is that I want the options to appear but they are not, and if they do how do make a button that can take you back to the options, also want to make the output screen to exit when I press "3" but I cant make it do that :/


Describe what you have tried to solve this problem
I tried everything I can think of from loops to statements but I cant get it to work, I even tried locate command.


Post any relevant code (You may choose to attach the file instead of posting the code if it is too long)
procedure heading
drawline (1, 345, 637, 345, 7)
locate (1, 36)
put "The Menus"
locate (2, 15)
put "This program will output the choice that the person chooses."
end heading
heading
var answer : int

procedure choices
loop
put ""
put ""
put ""
put ""
put ""
put "Choose an option: "
put " 1. To see my favourite class "
put " 2. To see my favourite animal"
put " 3. To exit"

get answer

if answer = 1 then
put "Science"

put "Back"
elsif answer = 2 then
put "Tiger"

end if
exit when answer = 3
end loop
end choices

Step one would be to actually use your choices procedure.

Not in the code you posted you didn't. You created the procedure but you never call it.

Call the procedure. You did it with heading, so I assume you know how.

Did that too, the thing I want to know is how you can make the options show up, when you click a option the screen clears and opens that option.

Ah okay where do you put the cls before the options? also how do I make the options come on the output screen? I tried the locate command, didn't work:P
