Help with Tic Tac Toe game

-----------------------------------

alright im still trying to get the buttons to work so im trying something new. What i need to know is how to make it so that when i push the Number 1 key it'll draw a X at a certain spot.
all i know how to set something similiar to this is when u push the arrow keys but i dont know how to set it for the number keys.
this is what i got for arrow keys

     

Var Key:array char of boolean
        if key (LEFT_BUTTON) then
        draw X
        drawline (100,100,175,175,blue)
        drawline (100,175,175,100,blue)

I chose to just draw out the line other than useing Font but i just need help how to identify the number keys or even the first 9 letters of the alphebet. Do i just replace the (LEFT_BUTTON) with (1)????

-----------------------------------

1) an if statement checks if a condition is true
2) arrow keys and any char on the keyboard are the same concept
3) no offense, but i think making tic-tac-toe may be too advanced for ur level
4) look up these in F10 or tutorials in compsci: Input.KeyDown; Decision Structures
