You would string the amount of beads that are required on your yarn before you start Casting on, then move them one at a time to where they are supposed to be as you are casting on.

Thank you,
where I am have the trouble is after I pull the beads up where they go.....If I cast-on the way I normaly do...the yarn from before the beads comes over the to the cast-on after the bead and leave a loop, this is so hard to explain.....thank you again for helping

Those might actually resolve themselves with the first row of knitting. Just give it a shot n see what happens.
I should also ask, what is your normal way of casting on?

try the backwards loop and see if that doesn't work better.
