The simplest way is to use global variables, although custom properties work well also. If it is simple data, sometimes I use "the dialogData" - a predefined global data container normall intended for passing data between a stack and a modal dialog box (but it can be used anywhere).
Example: (button on card 1) on mouseUp set the dialogData to "My Data Here" go card 2 end mouseUp (script of card 2) on preOpenCard put the dialogData into fld 1 -- puts "My Data Here" into fld 1 end preOpenCard So you see, you have a bunch of options...
