Unfortunately, I still get nothing with "the hilitedlines of me" in the
field script. The arrowkey message is not going to the field.
Here's the arrowkey handler in the card script. This works fine but I don't
know why it should be necessary.
on arrowkey what
put hilitedline of fld "notesList" into lineNbr
put the number of lines of fld "notesList" into totNbr
switch what
case "left"
case "right"
pass arrowkey
break
case "up"
if lineNbr = 1 then
put totNbr into nextLineNbr
else
put lineNbr - 1 into nextLineNbr
end if
break
case "down"
if lineNbr = nextLineNbr then
put 1 into nextLineNbr
else
put lineNbr + 1 into nextLineNbr
end if
break
end switch
set the hilitedline of fld "notesList" to nextLineNbr
put line nextLineNbr of fld "notesList" into listEntry
put getItem(listEntry, 1, tab) into noteTitle
displayNote noteTitle
pass arrowkey
end arrowkey
