I am confused by everyone's responses. I am experiencing the same thing as
John. But that is the way it has always been -- in Hypercard, in Metacard and in
all versions I've used of Revolution. If you have 10 lines in fld "test" and
type
delete line 3 of fld "test"
you still have 10 lines; the only difference is that line 3 is blank. I'd be
really surprised if version 2.1 changed that.
The way I delete I would delete the entire line is:
put line 1 to 2 of fld "test" & return & line 4 to 10 of fld "Test"
into fld "test"
(If anyone knows a more elegant way, please let me know!)
