CloseAlright, I am trying to do this in RM2k3. My problem is in this custom menu I am attempting to make(which is coming along quite well) I have come to a stand still with a problem I do not know how to solve. The menu is a Map Menu. Here are the problems...
The Menu(It ain't graphically pretty or awesome but it works for me.):
Problem #1: The money. All I know is, I have a variable that is set equal to Money, and every time I increase the money, the digits do not do anything and I am also troubling on what to do if the digits go over the singular. For example, for the first digits go from 0-9, do I have to do more pages for 10s, 100s, and 1000s. Cause I don't think there is enough pages.

Damn I wanna help, but I gotta head to class and won't be back for a while.
I'll tell you what I'd do, before I go.
I'd have 2 variables, one for the party's cash and another to do some calculation.
First digit is = to Party's cash variable, but when that variable is > 10 you put a 1 in the 2nd digit and make the 2nd variable = whatever the party's cash is - 10 and make the first digit = to whatever the 2nd variable's value now is (So if the party had 19 gold it would - 10 and put 1 as the 2nd digit leaving 9 as the first.)
I hope you get where I'm going. If no one is able to help you before I get back I'll explain better.

A nice tutorial on how to break a 4-digit variable into a set of four 1-digit numbers is probably what you want. See here:
http://www.wombatrpgs.frih.net/phpBB2/faq.php#1
After that, each event should display like you would with 10 pages. There are other ways with pictures, but this is the easiest.

@VRasta:
I think I get ya, but wouldn't that interfere with spending money to buy items, equips, and such with using two variables?
@wombats:
Alright, so... your FAQ is telling me I would need to make different variables for each place and divide them by their place number ? Or use the same variable and do that, causes I quite don't understand. My apologizes.

Yeah, you need to make different variables for each place, but you need to run them through Modulo, subtraction, and division as well. I highly recommend you look at that Modulo page on Wikipedia, and examine the pseudocode provided.
