When I was very young I used to run a gadget like this on a field with styled text:
on mouseUp get fld 1 repeat for each char tChar in it put numToChar(charToNum(tChar)) after accum end repeat put accum into fld 2 end mouseUp But you do not have to do all that: on mouseUp get fld 1 put it into fld 2 end mouseUp I suppose when you put styled text into a variable, unless you play with the HTMLText, only plain text can be held there.
