Ah, another potential can of worms!
Rev normally allows you to use unquoted literal names, except where they're reserved words in the language, or have weird characters in them that would be difficult to parse (like spaces etc). To err on the side of caution I usually always quote my field names (unless of course you're using a variable to refer to the name of a field). There's also a preference setting which switches Rev into a feature which demands quotes around literals.

put "myfieldname" into thefieldtouse
--sets up a variable with the name of the field I want

put empty into field thefieldtouse
--this is ok because thefieldtouse is a variable



put empty into field "thefieldinquestion"
--here thefieldinquestion is actually the name of the field, so I always quote it

Heh.

You know I tried that. But didn't use quotes. So I assume when referring to
objects on cards you have to use quotes?
