[Yves COPPE]

Hi Paul,


Here is a sample of complex answer with variables


put "a html capacity" into myvar
put "in Revolution" into tPrompt

put "<font face='Lucida Grande' size='13'>There is </font>" into tAnswer
       put "<font face='Lucida Grande' 
size='15'><b>"&myVar&"</b></font>" after tAnswer
       put "<font face='Lucida Grande' size='13'>"&tPrompt&"</font>" 
after tAnswer
       replace "'" with quote in tAnswer
       put "210005" into gRevAppIcon
       answer tAnswer with "NO" or "YES" as sheet


hope this helps.
