  13.         BackGround.Paint = function()
  14.                 draw.RoundedBox(4, 0, 0, BackGround:GetWide(), BackGround:GetTall(), Color(0, 225, 225, 255))
  15.                 draw.RoundedBox(2, 2, 2, BackGround:GetWide()-4, 21, Color(255, 0, 0, 255))
  16.         end
  17.        
  18.         local TextEntry = vgui.Create( "DTextEntry", BackGround )
  19.         TextEntry:SetPos( 20,30 )

I have a feeling your friend is using the wrong syntax.

Found your problem its on line 24 of this code.

Code: Lua
  1. function Menu( ply )
  2.        
  3.         local ply = LocalPlayer()
  4.        
  5.         local BackGround = vgui.Create( "DFrame" )
  6.         BackGround:SetSize( 200,70 )
  7.         BackGround:SetPos( (ScrW()/2)-BackGround:GetWide(),(ScrH()/2)-BackGround:GetTall() )
  8.         BackGround:SetTitle( "Menu" )
  9.         BackGround:SetVisible( true )
  10.         BackGround:SetDraggable( true )
  11.         BackGround:ShowCloseButton( true )
  12.         BackGround:MakePopup()
  13.         BackGround.Paint = function()
  14.                 draw.RoundedBox(4, 0, 0, BackGround:GetWide(), BackGround:GetTall(), Color(0, 225, 225, 255))
  15.                 draw.RoundedBox(2, 2, 2, BackGround:GetWide()-4, 21, Color(255, 0, 0, 255))
  16.         end
  17.        
  18.         local TextEntry = vgui.Create( "DTextEntry", BackGround )
  19.         TextEntry:SetPos( 20,30 )
  20.         TextEntry:SetTall( 20 )
  21.         TextEntry:SetWide( 160 )
  22.         TextEntry:SetEnterAllowed( true )
  23.         TextEntry.OnEnter = function()
  24.                 PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTCENTER ..TextEntry:GetText() )
  25.                 BackGround:SetVisible()
  26.         end
  27. end
  28. concommand.Add("open_menu",Menu)
  29.  

Change PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTCENTER ..TextEntry:GetText() ) to PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTCENTER, TextEntry:GetText() )


Will try to find any other code errors shortly, but change that and see if there are any new errors. (And post them here.)

Lampman, sometimes your noob-ish-ness really makes me want to poke out my eyes so as to not see silly questions like you just asked.

You can't run GUI on a server.
Derma/GUI = client only.

Um, could you do me a favor and please, please use punctuation.
It's very difficult to read through your posts sometimes.
Sorry for asking if this offends you, but it would let me, and most likely others help you better.
