Yes. You have to use syntax that makes it plain to the engine that the variable
tID should be evaluated before any action is taken. The only way to do that is
to use language that can only be applied to controls, ie, setting a property.
Since you can't set a property of a variable, the engine
Try: set the text of tlongid to "my email"
Otherwise, you're just putting a value into your tlongid variable, the same way
you did with the long id of the field.

Folks,
I tried
Put the long id of field "email" into tlongid
Put "my email" into tlongid
This does not work.
It works if I copy the long id and paste the second line in the message box.
Seems this should work.

Folks,
I've had to forward this to my iPad to send it. I had to update my ssl
certificate and it buggered the email from my server and I can't send from my
Mac laptop, but I can from my iPad. Go figure!
Thanks for your feedback, here is what I found out:
> The long ID of a field looks
To describe the other aspect of this, you can only use a variable
containing a long id as a reference to the underlying object if you
reference properties of the object. Hence why
put the long id of fld "test" into tID
set the left of tID to 47
set the vis of tID to true
set the dontwrap of tiD
