Does anybody know how to save a program that has been written in assembly to a floppy (Apple IIe) I tried "BSAVE PROGRAM,A$300,L$18" with a program that began line 300 and was 18 bytes long and I get syntax error. Is this even an Applesoft command. Bear in mind I have only begun to explore the Apple II and know nothing about it so this is probably simple.

You probably got the syntax error because you don't have DOS (or ProDOS) booted/loaded. It's not an Applesoft command, it's a DOS/ProDOS command. Your syntax is correct (but note that L$18 is _hex_ 18 bytes, or decimal 24).

Do you have a bootable disk that gets you to an Applesoft prompt?
