Here you go, this will be ugly and untested, but should give you the main idea behind one.
void text(string text1, string text2, string text3, string text4)
{
while(!b1)
{
rectfill(0,screeny-(screeny/4), screenx, screeny, 17);
gotoXY(5, screeny-(screeny/4));
printstring(0, text1);
gotoXY(5, 1*fontheight(0)+screeny-(screeny/4));
printstring(0, text2);
gotoXY(5, 2*fontheight(0)+screeny-(screeny/4));
printstring(0, text3);
gotoXY(5, 3*fontheight(0)+screeny-(screeny/4));
printstring(0, text4);
showpage();
render();
}
}

so then to call the event like for a character talking
just put
event //1
{
text("yo")
}
right?

close, but you have to fill up the empty strings, ie:
text("Yo", "", "", "");
and you can also change the coordinates, colours etc. quite easily.

Oops, my mistake. Add this line before the while() loop:
unpress(1);
the way it was, it would detect the button pressed to start the event as the same one as to stop the loop.

a few things, this is a help forum, we will help, but not make a game for you.
I used to be like you, still am sometimes. But I gained my knowledge off of studying other peoples code, seeing how and where they execute it, I learn the functions and gain knowledge that way.
When TVS goes back up, go to the files section and download a game that has been completed. look at the code, read vergec.txt repeatedly, see how others use it. This is a good way to learn,
and believe me, after you code your first thing, like a textbox, there is nothing more exciting than to look at it and say, "hey, I coded that", or, "hey, thats my own code"
you will be very pleased with yourself I am sure.
