Placing variables in Font.Draw command

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

hi, i was just wondering if this was possible and how i am able to do it.  I wanted it so that it would display the user's name but in a different text. I tried it a couple of times but had no success. i tried:Font.Draw ("blah, blah, blah, ", username, ".", 200, 200, font7, brightblue)

Close, only instead of ' , ' use ' + '.

Font.Draw ("blah, blah, blah, "+ username+ ".", 200, 200, font7, brightblue)

That is assuming username is a string, if its an int juss use intstr (usernumber)

You sure?  Chek your typing, because this seems to work fine.
var font : int := Font.New ("Arial:20")
var username : string := "jamonathin"
Font.Draw ("Username: " + username + ".", 20, 100, font, black)
