Hi there,
I’ve been working with Corona for several years now, but I still trip up occasionally on the easy stuff so back to the newbie bench for me on this one. Is there a way to pull up and display text on screen from words in a text file rather than from text within the code? Seems like that’s probably a simple thing, but I haven’t been able to find an answer or example of how to do it.
Thanks.
You just need to load the file from the filing system as a string and then display that string as a text object.

That did it. Thanks a bunch!
