materials panel

hello,

following the noob to pro tutorials , i am at the section about creating a die, and everything went fine until i got to the rendering part. according to the manual , i am supposed to get a material section with some numbers, inside the links and materials panel, but as far as i can see, i only get a lamp panel where i can choose the type of light. So , if anybody knows, i will appreciate it…takk

sorry guys, i got it, i was just selecting the lamp and the cube at the same time, and it was the reason that it didnt give me other options

thanks

Mario
