Jimbo, how would I go about adding to my script so that it to do this: I for example choose option 4 and I would like it to take me to a whole new page (well, clear the screen) then allow me to choose from 5/6 options, which are functional. Dunno if that is clear but, ill give u an example:

Usual menu appears with 6 options e.g.

1. -
2. -
3. -
4. File functions
5. Directory functions
6. -

And say I choose option 4, I would like it to clear the screen and take me to a new sub-menu e.g.

1. Delete
2. Copy
3. Remove
etc ^^the above functions need to be functional

Can ne1 help????

You just need to add code in Filefunctions () and Directoryfunctions () to paint the sub-menu, read answer, and a case statement to process, just like you are doing now for your main menu. Nothing new, just more of the same.
