(Rebol/View question)
You are saving a handle, so to speak,
to the screen object when you assign
it to a variable. If you dont do that,
the element is still in the user interface,
but you have no way to refer to it later
without assigning it to some word.
Your example was assigning the label
of the field rather than the field itself.
This should work better.
