I am just starting out and I’m using the Corona Editor with Sublime Text 2. I have only one line of code (below), and I already getting an error ‘=’ expected near ‘Background’. It has to be something really simple that I’m missing. Please advise.

Local Background = display.newImage(“Background.png”)

local not Local

Its case-sensitive.

Don’t give up! :) You’ll be fine
