make the following change:
<LINGO> on displayStatement me, memName <LINGO> By default the object reference "me" is passed to the handlers as the first argument. ~Sandy. * Anything less than extraordinary is not acceptable to me. * -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mikael Wir�n Sent: Friday, January 04, 2002 4:15 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: <lingo-l> argument changing type by using sendSprite command Hi all. I just ran into a strange thing. i�m using sendsprite to dynamicaly create a searchstring that has one element that may vary. The problem is this. i use this behavior on the buttons activating the handler called <LINGO> property mySprite, myName on beginSprite me mySprite = me.spriteNum myName = sprite(mySprite).member.name end on mouseUp me sendSprite(21,#displayStatement,myName) end </LINGO> This far myName is a string AFAIK it gives it�s name as a string if you put it in the message window on the other end it gets recieved by this handler <LINGO> on displayStatement memName put memName lastLine = member("qHolder").lineCount qKey = string("<"&qCount&"_"&memName&">") put qKey && memName </LINGO> the first put gives -- <offspring "questions" 4 1acf034> the second one gives -- "<1_<offspring "questions" 5 4e24b8>> <offspring "questions" 4 4e24b8>" Am i missing something essential here? because the string should read "<1_knapp_1>" TIA /Micke [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Lingo-L is for learning and helping with programming Lingo.
