Hi Roger
I'm sure I missed the point of this thread. I'll go through it more carefully.
But could you tell me how this "mouseUP" handle fails to do the job?
Thanks,
Jim
on mouseUp
put field 1 into tAngle
put tAngle*pi/180 into tAngle
--put the label of btn "myOptiionMenu" into sOption
put the label of button "myOptionMenu" into tTrigFunct
switch tTrigFunct
case "sine"
put sin(tAngle) into tValue
put "The sine of " & tAngle*180/pi & " degrees is " & tValue into
tResult
break
case "cosine"
put cos(tAngle) into tValue
put "The cosine of " & tAngle*180/pi & " is " & tValue into tResult
break
case "tangent"
put tan(tAngle) into tValue
put "The Tangent of " & tAngle*180/pi & " is " & tValue into tResult
end switch
put tResult into field 2
end mouseUp
