Read my scripts, Terry: :{`)
>>on updateTime
>> if there is a field "Now" then
>> put the long time into field "Now"
>> send updateTime to field "Now" in 1 second
>> end if
>>end updateTime

Don't both include the if construct?
BTW, HT will complain just like Transcript if one references a nonexistent
object.
