In my game there's a bookshelf that the player can examine which should trigger a 'bookshelf' menu to appear; it contains a list of topics and when one is selected it's corresponding text will appear. The problem is everytime I attempt to examine the bookshelf an error occurs and the game closes. The message is: Run-time error '380': Invalid property value. I'm not sure how to fix this... any ideas?

post your code here nad i can have a look and see what's wrong. i'll post the correct version, and tell you how i fixed it. if you don't know how to get the code, open notepad and open your game in it: that's the asl code.

Ha, I actually fixed it by diving into the text like you said. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

that's ok. if you need any more help jsut ask me.
