Another Scripting Question

[Brian Yennie]

Judy,

You may want to drop the "last line" reference altogether, and just say:

put "xxx"&return after fld "MessageWatcher"

IIRC, "the last line" may try to be smart and find the non-empty line 
before your return, rather than the technically empty data after it.

HTH,
Brian
