ENTERING NAME

Pages: 1
Hello everyone! :)
I'm pretty new to RPG Maker, and consequently, my eventing skills aren't very good. (Though I have mananged to create a half-decent cutscene.)
I'm using RPG Maker 2000, and I'm trying to put in the event that lets a player type in the name they want for a character. I've attempted this numerous times, but it just won't work properly for me. I would be very, very grateful if someone were to give me a (moderately) detailed list of the events I need to put in and anything I might need to type or map.
If I'm not being specific/clear enough, I'd be happy to edit this to put in more info about my problem if anyone asks for it. Also, if there's an incredibly obvious solution, I shall gladly bash my newbie head against my bedroom wall until I collapse on my bed in a dazed stupor.
;D
I don't know if 2k has such an option, but isn't there an event command that does exactly that on its own? Most other makers do.

RM2k Enter Hero name command is broken. You will need some sort of patch.

Thankyou very much, Jakester. And thankyou TooManyToasters for replying. Truth be told, I wasn't sure if *anyone* was going to pay any attention to my pitiful begging-for-help. I will pay everyone who ever helped me back by creating a very awesome game one day ;) That is, if I can stick to one project and not start five more within the next twenty-four hours ;D
