looks like you mix to many incorrect expressions here.

Try this (the long, but correct way):

on mouseup
   put the thumbposition of me into ThumbVal
   if (thumbVal = 1) or (thumbVal  = 2) or (thumbVal  = 3)  then
     answer "1,2,3"
   end if
if (thumbVal = 4) or (thumbVal  = 5) or (thumbVal  = 6)  then
     answer "4,5,6"
   end if
end mouseup


BUT you can have it much shorter (and save hours of typing ;-)

on mouseup
   if the thumpos of me < 4 then
      answer "1,2,3"
   else
      answer "4,5,6"
   end if
end mouseup


Hope that helps...
