I didn't realize that would work. I see it does. I usually use "after". Also, I would build the string and then put it into the field after it is built.

on rnum
  global x
  put random(9) into rn
  put rn into char x of field "random"
end rnum

This is not really a good way to use global. I'd avoid it. You can pass x as a parameter.

For that matter you can return the char as a function value and accumulate it in the main loop.

I would also avoid unneeded uses of fields. I think field "Alpha" should be a constant.

Best wishes on your exercise!
