Hi Bill,

I have a list field which I populate with data and search. When a search entry is found in the field
I set the hilitedline of it so that the user sees a line found in addition to the outlined word.


This looks fine but when I try to copy it nothing gets to the clipboard. If I click on the line
and select copy then the correct information goes to the clipboard.

Really?


Here nothing gets copied when i select a line in a listfield and do "copy"...


Anyway, you can do the "copy thingie" manually by adding these lines where necessary:


set clipboarddata["text"] to line (the hilitedlines of fld "Directory") of fld "Directory"

You get the picture...

Here is the find script which is the script of a field:

local lineNumberFound
on keyDown
find empty -- gets rid of the find box around text and resets find to the beginning
pass keyDown
end keyDown
on keyUp
find field "Search Text" in field "Directory"
put the foundLine into lineNumberFound
set the hilitedLine of field "Directory" to word 2 of lineNumberFound

## here,


end keyUp
on returnInField
  send mouseUp to button "Find Next"
  put the foundLine into lineNumberFound
  set the hilitedLine of field "Directory" to word 2 of lineNumberFound

##here...


end returnInField
on arrowKey theKey
if theKey is "up" then put word 2 of lineNumberFound - 1 into lineNumberFound
if theKey is "down" then put word 2 of lineNumberFound + 1 into lineNumberFound
set the hilitedLine of field "Directory" to lineNumberFound -- actually hilite line

## and/or here... ## Works for me...

-- put the "Line " & hilitedLine of field "Directory" into lineNumberFound -- "Line " is a dummy to get the number as 2nd word
end arrowKey


Is there something else I need to set in the search to "really" select the line?

No, should work this way...
