In the last line of your AppleScript, just 'get' the returning value, which will put it into 'it'. Then in Rev, check 'the result' to get 'it', as in: -- Contents of field 1: tell application "Finder" get the name of the startup disk end tell -- button script on mouseUp do field 1 as appleScript put the result into tStartupDisk end mouseUp > > 3) Is there a way to get a fairly large Applescript into a "do script" > command? The one-line-at-a-time-&-return method could get rather painful. Sure. Easiest way to do it is to make sure the script works from the AppleScript Script Editor and then copy and paste it into a field in Rev that you 'do' as AppleScript.
