Hi
You can use the name of sprites instead of their number if you gave them one
in the application manager Easyspr (appman_obj).
Once Lrespred, you can do something like this:
100 outln
120 mysprite=spra("xyw"): rem the name of the sprite
140 wsprt 100,100,mysprite
And you will see your "xyw" sprite on the screen.
Does this help you?
