I am recreating some hypercard stacks.
I am having a problem with "find"
The handler below:
on mouseUp
1 select the clickline
2 put the selectedtext into wordToFind
3 find string wordToFind in field "TestFld2"
4 put wordToFind & the result
5 find string "Cafe (das)" in field "TestFld2"
end mouseUp
line 5 works as expected.
line 3 returns "Not Found"
Try adding a diagnostic line to check the value of the selection:
on mouseUp
select the clickline
put the selectedtext into wordToFind
find string wordToFind in field "TestFld2"
put wordToFind & the result
find string "Cafe (das)" in field "TestFld2"
put wordToFind && (wordToFind = "Cafe (das)") --<
end mouseUp
