Thanks Klaus. Even though one of the suggestions that Jim made worked
"once", it didn't continue to work and I've reverted back to my less
"eloquent" workaround, which I may eventually need anyway to
implement a more varied response based on the specific fields to
which the mouseup is sent. There are obviously some Rev issues with
building names. I suspect your comment regarding the use of
parenthesis is probably relevant. It was with HyperCard and I've long
been in the habit of "over using" them for clarity if nothing else.
This raises another item: I found that a mouseup that I wanted
"caught" by the card script was being passed on to the stack script
upon completion. When I encountered this with HC I would insert an
exit to HyperCard statement. I thought I had tried an exit to Rev or
Revolution statement once before and it didn't work; so I just used
the exit to HyperCard statement. To my surprise it worked!
Again, thanks, Joe Wilkins

Hi Joe,
OK, Phil. I wasted about an hour fiddling with this. It just
wouldn't compile. The result was always lineNumH instead of "1H"
for the first line when it is clicked on.
-- I have a scrolling field with a bunch of numbered phrases.on
mouseup
put word one of the value of the clickline into lineNum --
provides number w/ a periof
delete last char of lineNum -- deletes the period
put quote & "lineNum"&"H""e into fldName -- creates a field
name such as "1H"
send mouseup to field fldName -- sends the mouseup to the
appropriate field
I might be a bit late, but anyway, try this:
## in case this is a list field you can could also use:
## put word one of the selectedtext of fld "xyz" into lineNum
put word one of the value of the clickline into lineNum --
provides number w/ a periof
delete last char of lineNum -- deletes the period
## sometimes brackets are highly recommended, especially when creating
## object names with variables!
put (lineNum &"H") into fldName
## creates a field name such as "1H" and DOES now :-)
send mouseup to field fldName -- sends the mouseup to the
appropriate field
Good luck and TIA,
Joe wilkins
