I know this isn't possible, but is it possible to do it on another way to get Mat A[1,1] to be text.

0->A
{2,1} -> Dim Mat A
"text" -> Mat A[1,1]
"txet" -> Mat A[1,2]
Lbl 0
Locate 5,5+(5*A),Mat A[1+A,1]
A+1->A
A=2=>Goto *
Goto 0
Lbl *

And is Dim only used like I have used it above, or can it be used to something else.

(I don't seem to find casio gudie pages with anything more that the basic stuff)

Well you can'tstore text in matrixes except by "encrypting" it. A has the value 1 etc...
so the value
010304 in a cell would mean ACE but since you'll have to decode every character in a HUGE loop
you'll get a pretty slow program.

For the dim command:

Dim Mat A->List 1 ;return size of mat a in list 1
Dim List 1->A ;Stores length of list 1 in variable A
10->Dim List 1;Creates a list with 10 fields

Thats all the dim command does.

You can store strings in functions and graph vars.
There's no way of printing them on screen, but it's a way of specifying user defined functions

For example:
"AX+B"->Y1
or
"Sin X+Cos Y"->f1

alternatively, for runtime input:
?->Y1
or
?->f1

@Webness: read my topics on Casio Basic Tutorial. for those of you waiting for more to be published I will do it once I can get back to my normal computer.

Thanks, that explaned the result of this:

A -> Mat A[1,1]
Locate 4,1,Mat A[1,1]

It should have been a way to uncrypting it, somthing like:

Locate 4,1,cry(Mat A[1,1])

theres no easy way to use text on a casio (except on the classpad), unless you absolutly have to I wouldn't bother.
