Hello. I'm using a local script to do this in.
function ChangeText()
local Text = script.Parent.Text
Text = "dsadad"
end
ChangeText()
It will not do anything. Please help!

Why is this not working? I'm trying to change the text of something!

It's because your variable called Text is directly referencing the Text of your TextLabel/Button. When you go and do
Text = "dsadad"
You're actually changing the variable and not the TextLabel/Button.
function ChangeText()
local Text = script.Parent
Text.Text = "dsadad"
end
ChangeText()
The code above will actually change the Text of the TextLabel/Button.

What is script.Parent.Text exactly
Tip, when changing Properties of things, dont reference the Property you want to change inside of the Variable! Hope this helps.
