However, they don't work when clicked. Any insight from similar experiences would be great. Thanks.

So, you've created your app. You've created and designated some kind of 'home' page which should be your button menu. You should have also created at least one additional screen that you can link to from your button menu. You've gone back to your 'home' page and created a button that links to the additional screen. What does it do? Does it just 'sit there'. If so, it sounds like the pages aren't actually linked. You may want to revisit those settings in your menu screen and ensure they are linked to your other pages. Let us know what happens (or doesn't) and we'll see how to fix this. It's usually something simple, so don't worry too much.

It'll tell you that you clicked, and what it tried to do, and whether it failed or succeeded at that.

I now know enough to recognize the true scope of my ignorance, so I appeal to the experience of the giants that came before me. I am looking into the settings for the buttons and, although discovered many cool new things (thanks BT) have not yet figured out why my buttons are acting like congress (doing nothing). Will check the settings again tonight. Thanks for the help. -Bodhim Comments "As far as I can tell" is a statement of my recognition of how little I know.

But my Xcode isn't numbering the lines?! Im pretty sure it supposed to; where did they go and how do I get them back? Anyone know what I am talking about? Thanks again.
