This is the part that I don't think I understand. Why do you need to turn the long id of the parent into a small array and dispatch to to any object along the path? From the search custom control I would just do the following: dispatch "behaviorSearchAndFilter" This sends the message down the normal message path starting at the object containing the script. You can then handle the message farther down in a group, card, or stack script. What is it you are trying to accomplish with the parent of the search custom control? -- Trevor DeVore ScreenSteps www.screensteps.com _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
