line number in a for each repeat

[Thomas McGrath III]

Yes that would work. I forgot because I am not used to the (new to me) 
repeat for each and was more concerned if there was a way built into 
the repeat that did it. I was so concerned that I forgot that I could 
role my own.

I did end up using the lineoffset and that works for what I am doing, 
but this would have been the way I did it before in SuperCard.

PS.. I have decided to take on our Director programmer after reading 
the threads about Adobe buying MM out. Before I felt that he had a lot 
of time invested and although I knew I could do this I didn't want to 
push him out. Now however I figured that it was a good time to 
'recreate' in REV what he has been doing in MM Director for the past 
two years. I know REV can handle it especially since we are no longer 
posting a live version straight on the web of our software.

Thanks
