Hi Xavier,
May be I'm wrong but your code makes no sense for me :-)
You want to get a result but you insert a line of code between the
command and the request for the result: can't work.
You have to request the result immediately without requesting
anything else to the engine in the meantime.
Then you ask replace with it:" it" is supposed to be a result and is
not a result...
And I don't understand why you would place a result as default in an
ask dialog...
As for me - but may be again, I'm wrong - I could write:
on mouseUp
local f,x,y,txt
-----
put "viewbar" into f
put fld f into txt
-----
ask "Replace what:" with lselection
if the result = "cancel" then exit mouseUp
put it into x
-----
ask "Replace with:" with it
if the result = "cancel" then exit mouseUp
put it into y
-----
replace x with y in fld f
end mouseUp
