You need to have *mystring capitalizing the "S", like *myString.

I was only able to answer your question because I learned a little bit of Objective-C and iOS programming a while ago, and when I saw the title of "NSString" in the forum, I thought I might check it out because that looked familiar to me; however, Objective-C and iOS programming are not currently fresh in my mind. Plus, the main reason I was able to help is because I saw that the code challenge instructions told you to use a capital letter when you hadn't used one, so I did the challenge and saw that the capital letter passed.

However, I found this forum post that may be able to answer your question: showQuote problem answered
