MysticGeneral	In a multiboard, I don't believe it really needs an update trigger. Well for one like yours anyway. Code: Multiboard - Set the text for (Last created multiboard) item in column 2, row 3 to (String(Kills[1])) Why is there a string conversion? If I'm not mistaken, Kills[x] is an integer array. Since it's an integer, it doesn't need to be converted. Try taking out the conversion.

Hm, well I tried what you gave me, I tinked around with the Conversion stuff too... but to no avail, the best ive gotten it to do is go to 1, then stop working. . . any thoughts? I'll keep trying, but I would greatly appreciate any assistance any of you can give me.
