Thanks everyone. You always come through.
You have taught me a new property: MenuHistory
I have found the following works for me. In place of the "MenuPick" handler I
used only a "mouseUP" handler.
(The TabMenu object handles all the highlighting chores.)
on mouseUp
put the menuhistory of me into tNum
put "Task" & tNum into tName
send tName to me in 0 millisec
end mouseUp
on task1
answer "Taskone"
end task1
on task2
answer "TaskTwo"
end task2
on task3
answer "TaskThree"
end task3
Or, more simply: Get the "text" of the TabMenu and run that line. (I haven't
tried this.)
on mouseUp
put the menuhistory of me into tNum
put line tNum of the text of me into tTask
switch tTask
case whatever
etc.
break
etc.
end switch
end mouseUp
I would try this, but the power is out for the fourth time this year due to
heavy snow. Don't believe everything you hear about California. I'm running on
a generator, and borrowed time.
