Hi thomas, Thank you for your help. I will most definetly take you up on your offer concerning the .net books. I am of course interested in the rpg aspect stuff, but more for non computer games, kind of like dice rollers, character generators and stuff like that. Do you know where I can get .net, or is it called visual studio .net? How much is it? Anyway I am glad to here you are interested in making an accesible rpg. I wasn't sure if that was what you were looking for, a subject for a game. I did start writing something up, but it isn't finished and it was written with a diffrent purpose in mind, but I think parts of it will help At least I think it will. You need anything at all in developing you RPG game, don't hesitate to ask. If you need any of the manuals to dungeons and dragons, I can send you all of mine. I don't use them anyway.. talk to you later, allan
