Hi Eric,
What you are trying to do (or something similar) works for me with no
problems; so I suspect a syntax error.
If you would publish the text of your button, card, and stack
handlers, perhaps someone could shed more light.
Something else you could try: open the card script, turn on script
debug mode, set a breakpoint [click to the left of] on the first line
of the handler called by the button, then click on the button. If
the debug screen doesn't appear, the button script didn't run the
card script; if it does appear, click on "step into" or "step over"
and keep clicking after each statement is executed so you can trace
your handler's progress. At some point the handler should fail.
Where it fails may help you understand why it fails [Message &
Variable Watcher windows may also help].
