Why won't this work?

[syntax="qbasic"]SUB center (text$, hloc%)
LOCATE hloc%, 41 - INT(LEN(text$) / 2) PRINT text$ END SUB[/syntax] It says that LOCATE is an illegal function call :evil:. Anyone know why?

Check the value of text$...it could easily be of zero length. Looks like you're using SCREEN 0 for this, eh? Also, make sure hloc% is a legal value.
I'd knock on wood, but my desk is particle board.

It works with zero length ("") strings passed too,
but if the string length is >81 chars it will try to locate a negative column and therefor generate an error. Make sure the strins you pass is <82 chars long, and as Adosorken said: that hlock% is a legal value
