I am wanting to create messages in a program to describe moves and such, what is the best way to do that. I checked the manuals but I am still a little unsure. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think you mean a comment.
You can add program comments by selecting comment from the menu. It will always start with an ! and on newer controllers is highlighted yellow.

OK thanks. I am also trying to tie the robot home position to DO 21 in order to send it to a HMI screen. I have the home set up as PR[1] in the program and when I get there I am turning on Do 21, but it is only blinking on then off again. Is it best to send that to a register first or am I totally missing something.

Use a reference position.
Move to your home position first. Then go to menu-setup-ref pos. Record a ref pos and set all angle tolerances to 1. Then select your DO.
