Hi,
I have a Problem ... for school i have to write a little program wich
translates a normal text into a text written with the morse codes ! I have
started but i am stuck at the point that metacard only translates one single
letter .... it's really frustrating i have beening trying out everything for
about 5 days now.... ! (i am using MetaCard for 4 weeks now!) I think i have
to make some sort of repeat loop so that metacard checks every word and then
puts the morse cord in for each word and doesn'T just put in the code for
the last letter...PLEASE help me !! I am loosing hope that its even possible
...here's my Script sofar ... (only got the letters a;b;c cause no üonit of
doing every letter if the first three ain'T working !

on mouseUp
  put empty into field "morsetext"
  put empty into field "standardtext"
  ask "What would you like to translate?? Was hätten Sie gern übersetzt ??"
  if it is not empty then
    set the cursor to watch
    put it into field "standardtext"
    put "it" into field "morsetext"
    put it into filecontent
    repeat for each word w in filecontent
      if "a" is in field "standardtext"  then
        put ".- /" into field "morsetext"
      end if
      if "b" is in field "standardtext" then
        put "-... /" into field "morsetext"
      end if
      if "c" is in field "standardtext" then
        put "-.-. /" into field "morsetext"
      end if
    end repeat
    answer "There you go! Bitte Schön!"
  end if
end mouseUp

Thank You alot ...greets theo !!
