Yeah, you can use the same handler because order doesn't matter. It
sounded from your description like the barcode was unique to 1 item, so it
should work dandy. Once the array is built (assuming you decide to leave
it as an array and not combine it) the array is keyed by the barcode so its

In that case what Richard did, using the barcode as keys, will obviate that
issue. Do you see? With arrays, the appropriate data can be made to go only
with its associated keys, and the order of play does not matter. So the

Thanks Mike and Craig,
One of my challenges is the two lists do not mirror each other by barcode
number. The barcodes are not on the same lines in each list. That is why I was
running the “find barcode in list two.” I have teachers and other staff in the
list of serial numbers and I was hoping
Craig is right, this is asking to be an array, though if you prefer a flat

HI.
So, a single list. What is the relationship between the fact that a
particular barcode refers both to a student and a serial number? In other
words, if you had a single list, how would "12345" relate to both "john doe"
and "SDTKNY12345"?

Hi All,
I have two, two column lists. Each list has the same barcode item (item 1). The

actually fires.

The only thing I would do different would be to use the "repeat for each"
form rather than putting into lines. If your script is really long, the
time savings will add up. I THINK it will make an even greater difference
because you a) have to look at a specific line, then b) you have to grab
the
And this should be:
on mouseUp
put script of image "xxx" into tScriptToChange
put 0 into tLineNumber
repeat for each line tLine in tScriptToChange
add 1 to tLineNumber
if "unicodeText" is in tLine then
put replaceText(tLine,"unicodeT","t") into line tLineNumber of tScriptToChange
end if
if
I think this will be even faster. Put the script directly into a variable, use
a repeat for structure and replace text as needed directly in the variable. You
may not notice much of a speed improvement for smaller scripts, but if the
script is longer, this should execute faster than your version

Okay my standalone building bug is probably related to this one. I can provide
