I wish it was that simple but if that DOES turn out to be the problem, there's something not quite right with Rev itself. From an earlier post, I am comparing the pChoice that is passed by the menuPick handler with "the text of button "taskBar"" which is the button that sent me the pChoice in the first place so they should both be getting their data from the same object and should therefore be the same.

That is of course, unless the menuPick parameter is not a "true" line but I would think I'd get a "chunk types don't match" message or something like that.

This seems like a very simple thing but it's giving me fits!

When you use "is among", the entire line must match to get a hit. If the line you are trying to match has any extra characters (maybe "Movement History for Dummies") then the result is false. The two strings must be identical.

If you are trying to match only the beginnings of lines, try something like this:

 if offset(cr & myChoice, cr & tLines) > 0 then...
