need to cycle through letters in a text actor

[feral]

sorry guys, but strings and chars are still a weak point of mine

i just need a quick bit of code that will cycle through each letter of the alphabet and place the new letter in the textactor each draw..

ie:
text actor shows A
then shows B
then shows C
but only one at a time..

preferably on a key down event to move to next char ( forward and reverse)


thanks in advance ( sorry not being lazy , just not good at chars yet)

I think the easiest way would be to use the Ascii characters--set your variable for the letter A to it's Ascii counterpart (&#065) and then set up a function to increment that by 1.

bah thanks anyway, but I nutted it out eventually - this thread can be closed
