Hi Jan
Yes, that worked for me too.
Fortunately, as a workaround, having 'sharedText' active for that
particular field isn't going to cause any problems in this instance but
I still think it's a bug of sorts with the 'copy' command.
Using the copy field to stack command does not work for that strange
stack (is it corrupted?) but if you just copy the field to the clipboard
then paste to destination it does work as expected!
ie. from the message box..
Instead of..
copy fld 1 of card 1 of stack "teststack" to card 1 of stack "Untitled 1"
This works..
copy fld 1 of card 1 of stack "teststack"
create stack "new"
paste
hmm.. strange
regards

Hi
Having a annoying problem with copying a field from a
(specific) stack.
See below for basic test stack with a single field with
some content..
http://www.harryscollar.com/teststack.rev
This unusual stack was initially created via code, stripped
back of unneeded controls and saved.
When I load this stack into the IDE, create a new stack and
run the following command at the message box..
copy fld 1 of card 1 of stack "teststack" to card 1 of
stack "Untitled 1"
.. I get a blank field on the new stack!
Yet when I copy and paste the field onto another new stack
and try copying, it works and copies the contents too. It
also works if I manually recreate a test stack with another
test field.
Very strange because any new field created on
"teststack.rev" will now copy over to any other stacks with
empty contents.
I've checked relevant properties but nothing seems out of
place.
Argh! Starting to pull out my hair over this problem.
regards
alex
It worked for me, once i set the 'sharedText' property of the field to true. My
guess is that the copy command assumes that if this is false, you really didn't
want the original text :-)
HTH,
