Why did everything turn into a 0? It's probably because of the line
:Copy(GDB1,A,64)
But how can I fix this?

i'm not into axe, but it sound like S is only an integer (1 byte, 8 bits) zo that it can only hold one value at a time, and not an array of values.

by copying everything to S, you overflow it, and corrupt the data after the memory address of S
(that's what i think it is)

Before you do anything else, I'd recommend you clear your RAM then try again. Sounds like you've corrupted your RAM somewhere along the way (better get used to it ;D), so it'd be better to start again on a clean slate.

Your code works fine for me. Why not update Axe to the latest version first? There are always lots of bugfixes between versions.

EDIT: Can you post your new code? I don't understand what you mean by replacing GDB1 with S.

In Axe 1.0.0, a new optimization system was added: a peephole optimizer. Unfortunately, with it came quite a few bugs in its initial and few following releases of Axe. Axe 1.0.5 is one version which has a few bugs, one of which affects any program that contains a Copy() command for which the third argument is a constant (in this case, 64).

The best way to fix this would be to upgrade to the latest version of Axe: 1.1.2. Alternatively, you can fix this temporarily by disabling the peephole optimizer when compiling by pressing ZOOM to compile your program from Axe's list of source programs to compile instead of pressing ENTER.

Yes! After an update to Axe v 1.1.2, RAM clearing, compiling, and running, the error message disappeared.
Thanks for all the help!

You know, I've been wondering why so many new members seem to start at Axe 1.0.5... Seems like that's the version at ticalc.org: http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/428/42813.html

Someone needs to fix that D:

What does that have to do with updating Axe? And I thought only the original author could update their programs?
