You're right - it's a small thing. The "send" command in the stack
script is malformed for your purposes. par1, par2 and par3 are names of
containers, but MC thinks their names are the parameter values. To make
it work, it should read:
--of this button's stack
on stuur par1 par2 par3
open stack "/Mac HD/My Program/Generic Elements/fileaccess.mc"
-- here's the original line:
--send "stuur par1 par2 par3" to stack "fileaccess"
-- here's the re-do:
put quote & comma & quote into qcq -- for brevity below
send ("stuur" && quote & par1 & qcq & par2 & qcq & par3 & quote) to
stack "fileaccess"
close stack "fileaccess"
end stuur
The param values need commas between them as you rightly show in the
"mouseUp" handler above. I also enclosed each one in quotes because at
least one of them has an embedded space; it's possible that the quotes
will be interpreted as part of the value rather than as a delimiter, but
HEY - I have to leave *something* in question!
HTH.
