Hi cecarey1021 [original message -- and URL -- at end of post],

I do not work for Mythological Software.

You seem to be having trouble with the Building Index Number (BIN).
You are currently giving your shop a BIN of 43.

Dragon Blossom OSI adventure script ( http://tinyurl.com/3mp3j ) uses
the file mDB_text_game.txt containing:

44 TEXT_SHOPPE1 "AFTERBURN WEAPONS"
45 TEXT_SHOPPE2 "ARTHUR'S ARMOR"
46 TEXT_SHOPPE3 "ALCHEMIST BAZAAR"
47 TEXT_SHOPPE4 "VEX-PSI OUTPOST"
48 TEXT_SHOPPE5 "MERLIN'S TOWER"
49 TEXT_SHOPPE6 "DREAM MARKETPLACE"
50 TEXT_SHOPPE7 "DJINN EMBASSY"

For "Afterburn Weapons", the Text Message Number (TMN) is 44,
however, the BIN is 1. Looking at TMN 44, you can see the label is
TEXT_SHOPPE1. The number at the end of the label is the BIN.
Thus "Djinn Embassy" has a BIN of 7.

Most of Dragon Blossom OSI shops are located on the
mDB_interior_01.map file. Download it if you want to see how Dragon
Blossom OSI deals with shops.
