Might there be some non-printing characters imbedded somewhere in the 
handler? Does replacing the entire handler or script fix the problem?

I remember occasionally running into a similar problem in HyperCard, 
and I think I may even have seen something similar in Rev where I just 
re-entered the statement and it worked.
