This is great community support. Using a Custom Property really opened my eyes to what was possible in Revolution. Previously I had been thinking very linearly, and I need to overcome that. My application is a test that either reads answers from a file to show what was selected or reads input from the user to write the file. read value Y from array[X] and change target Y in group X read target Y in group X and put the value of Y into array[X]. This saves me the trouble of scripting every group and then I can add lots of goodies based on what X and Y are I can only think of accomplishing this by knowing where the object is in the group, hence the question..."how do I determine objects in a group?" Rev support offered repeat with i = 1 to the num of graphics in me ... end repeat But this only works if placed in the group script. To make this work in the stack script I tried being very linear with put word 5 of LongTargetName into MyGroupName repeat with i = 1 to the num of graphics in group value(MyGroupName) ... end repeat The problem comes from the fact that I have graphics in a group and each group can have the same graphic names but with unique Ids. So changing graphic "1" actually only changes the first graphic "1" (ID 123) not the graphic "1" (ID 321) in the group of the target. Is it possible to use target IDs and group IDs? I can't find any way to say Put the objectIDs of group X into Alist --(there doesn't seem to be a way to list objects unlike "put the groupIDs of me into X") Repeat for each line ThisLine in Alist If the id of the graphic ThisLine is not the id of the target then .... -zac _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
