Does this work?:

no, but


set the text of gField to "This is a test"

works. However, I want to add lines to the field, so I can't find a way to do the "after" part.

The do " " construct works, and leads me to believe there is something missing from the language, that would tell the interpreter to consider the next variable as a reference to an object.

The other constructs force it by syntax to do so; it seems to me that the one we are discussing is ambiguous and that is the problem.

The only reason I haven't use the short id is I wanted something general that would work from any stack.

Seems like you just need a word, like "object" in front of gField that would do it. The do " " approach seems clunky, and, really unnecessary if the syntax could be worked out.
