I'm sorry I can't be any more specific - I have no idea where the problem is. I'm a total beginner, and I've added everything I know to add to the
coding, but nothing happens when I push the button. I don't know at this point if it's an error in the
coding, or a syntax error that makes it not work.
Basically I am trying to get this function "Rip It" to go through the list of Dewey decimal numbers, change some of them, and return the new number and a message saying it's been changed. There is also one labeled "no number" that has to return an error (not necessarily an alert box, a message in the same space is okay.)
I am a total beginner and not particularly good at this stuff, so please be gentle! Many thanks!
