I created a new Mainstack, created a button, copied the above lines from 
your email, pasted them into the button script - and it works just fine. 
2.6 on Win XP

If it were me, I'd add
   "put param(1) && param(2) & cr  after msg" in as the first line of 
the function
   "put textw & cr after msg"   immediately before and immediately after 
the line that should change textw

and then see what I learn.  (or, as I said off-list, send me a copy of 
the stack - but be sure to send it from the Windows machine in case 
there was some problem copying the script from the Mac to the PC - line 
endings etc.).
