You need to parent your newly created instance(:

You can do this with the second argument of the Instance.new function, which is the parent the created instance will go into.

--This would make the message go into workspace.
m = Instance.new("Message",workspace)

m.Text = "hello"

Alternatively, you can set the Parent property of the m to workspace

m = Instance.new('Message')

m.Text = 'Hello'
m.Parent = workspace

You can use Instance.new To make new parts,messages,scripts,etc. You can set parent to send to the root thats a part thats the propety belongs to workspace and to itself.

Heres a script: Problem:You want to make a part thats transpeceny is 0.5 and you want to make it propety of workspace.

Part = Instance.new("Part",Workspace)
Part.Transpency = 0.5

Part.Parent = Workspace
end

Now your happy?This is the basics of scripting in roblox.Use it.Its FREAKING important.
