DrawText not drawing above triangles

when i draw text it appears behind all the triangles i have, even though i call the DrawText after i draw the primitives.

i've tried bringing the primitives to 0.1F on the z axis and they went all patchy with squares on, like they're on the edge of the view clipping distance. if i move them any further or even just to -0.1F then they dissapear completely!

i've tried transforming the view and world matrices but they dont seem to affect the screen at all.

hey i figured it out on my own, *again* thank you to the 11 people who read it though for your concern, this board has offered me help before so i'm not that annoyed, heres how i did it:

i was calling the text drawing before drawing all of my primitives, now i have all primitives stored in one vBuff and i have an array in each object indexing where it's vertexes start and how many there are. so i call a loop through all my objects calling drawprimitive and using the index and length / 3 to state where in the buffer my triangles are. then in the same loop the text is drawn, so i have each thing drawn as it was created.

Not the best way of doing it but all my text now appears on top of the triangles.
