Hi
     I removed the rem lines and changed the = to a double =. The script now 
looks like this.
let PAWS=GetWord ()

Pause ()
If paws=="Pause" Then
TypeString (" ")
EndIf
Beep ()
Now, the compiler says that there is a problem in my let statement. I 
believe the comment was that paws was an unknown function. What I am trying 
to do is store the information from the getword command so the If statement 
can process it. What should I do next?
     Thank you for your help.

God bless,
Mark
