Re: Deleting cards from within themselves.
To my knowledge yes, but then I never tested it thoroughly, never having needed to. But I did test your stack and found that clearly send in time sent right away and ignored the in time argument.

Re: Deleting cards from within themselves.
Yeah, looks like something broke with send in time. It’s clearly ignoring the in argument, because attempting to delete the card at all when the send in time is in a running script fails to delete the card, but deleting the card from the message box works fine. If I were you, I’d file a bug report using this stack as an example, and then I would bone up on using cards as forms to a database, and not as records in a database themselves.

Re: Deleting cards from within themselves.
You have to put the delete card handler in a higher level script in the message path. For instance. put this into the stack script: on deleteMyCard cdID delete card id cdID end deleteMyCard then put this into the button: on mouseup send (deleteMyCard the short id of this card) to this stack in 0 secs end mouseup That way the message gets queued to fire after the script of the button is finished executing. You can't delete an object whose script is still executing. -- Peter Peter M.

Bernd's solution is correct if you really want to create/delete cards. It would be better/more scalable to just maintain a list of the information and use a single card to display it. Then deleting a card would just mean removing an entry from that list. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: Deleting cards from within themselves.
in the stack script: on delcd pCd delete cd id pCd end delcd in the script of the btn of your card: on mouseUp send (delcd the id of this cd) to this stack in 0 end mouseup Best Günter Am 16.02.2015 um 20:42 schrieb Richmond: This CANNOT be done, as such. I am currently working up a moronically simple flashcard program for people to learn words in a new language. It features a card where end-users can add terms. Now, for every new term a templet card is cloned and 2 fields on the cloned card are filled. No rocket science round these parts! HOWEVER . . . there's always one of those . . . I want a button on each vocab. card that allows chummy to delete that card. Tried a button with this script: on mouseUp put the ID of this card into fld QARD of card INPUTTER send mouseUp to btn DELL of card INPUTTER end mouseUp where button DELL contains this: on mouseUp put fld QARD into QARD delete card ID QARD end mouseUp now, clicking directly on button DELL deletes the card . . but clicking the button on the card to be deleted does NOT delete that card because the script in that button is still active. Would be grateful for any ideas on this one.

Re: Deleting cards from within themselves.
Or even a bit easier --- on mouseUp put the long id of this card into tLID send delete tLID to this stack in 5 milliseconds end mouseUp --- see also on the forum http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=7t=22154hilit=+delete+button#p114046 Kind regards Bernd -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Deleting-cards-from-within-themselves-tp4688894p4688908.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
