You don't open it with File->Open, you open it with Rom Tools-> Open ROM, or click the icon on the toolbar that looks like a hard-disk.

Edit: Yes, it's perfectly fine if you make a tutorial for it!

You have an old (possibly buggy) version of advancemap. To get up to date: link.

Can anyone tell me what a flag is in scriptgen.
A flag is a number used to keep an event from happening again (analogous to a numbered checklist).

If you just want a fast answer:
0x200.
Use that, then for the next event you create, 0x201... then 0x202... when you get to 0x209, go to 0x20A, 0x20B ... 0x20F, then to 0x210. (Such are the ways of hex :P )

What is this written in? Yes, all of a sudden I am interested in writing programs.
You do know that you could either read the first post for that information or download the source and see for your self. If you are too lazy to do that, I doubt you can help programming this.

By the way:

Tech stuff:
PKSV is a GPL-licenced decompiler and compiler for Pokémon Advance ROMs, currently with only one developer - me!
If you get PKSVUI, there are 2 executables: pksvui.exe is the frontend (the graphical IDE) and pksv.exe is the backend.
It is programmed in a mixture of C and ASM, and compiled with MinGW (and passing the -O2 switch to the compiler which reduces filesize, at the expense of being slightly more difficult to debug).
If anyone wanted to know, that annoying crashing bug was a result of a misplaced addition (supposed to be inside an "if") causing memory 1 byte after the command-line argument list to be read. This didn't crash most XPSP2 computers, but caused serious problems on some others.
