············ Hello to all,
··················
··················· I am new to the BS2 and new to this forum.

····················I am having a slight problem with the FirstProgram in (What's a Microcontroller)

··················· On page 22 & 23 in the manual , when I click on·RUN in the drop down menu, I get a popup message that reads· "EXPECTED TERMINATING"· and then I can go no further.

···················· Where would I look or go to solve this problem?

·····················I am using XP Home.

···················· Any advice or input would be appreciated.

·····················Thank you.

    In the future, you really have to be more specific about what you've done and what you've seen. For example, did you type in the program or copy it from a file? Did the popup identify the line of your program that was a problem?

    I expect that you may have left off the closing quote on the 'hello there' message. Your first task is to look very carefully at what you have and make sure it's exactly what's shown in the manual.

    The editor highlights where it sees the problem.· Also, always look at the line BEFORE where it highlights.· Check that, if still a problem, post that area of code at least.

    just copy and paste to your program:

    DEBUG "HI"

    END 'that's all!
