Creating items on a card that isn't the current card.

[Peter T. Evensen]

I'm trying to have a card create images in a group before the card is 
displayed.  This happens when an OK button is pressed several cards before 
that.

The handler works if I am on the card in question, but if I 'send SetupCard 
to card "Card 5"', things are not created properly.

The issue comes in when I do the following:

       copy image tImageName of me  to group "Mystery Phrase" of me
       put "Letter" && i into tImageName
       set the name of it to tImageName

The copied image in the group "Mystery Phrase" has an id of 0 if this card 
isn't the current card.  That seems to goof things up royally  (i.e. "it" 
is 'image id 0 of group id 3923 of card id 1006 of stack "C:/Projects/Word 
Problems/main.rev"' instead of 'image id 3922 of group id 3923 of card id 
1006 of stack "C:/Projects/Word Problems/main.rev"' )

I suppose I could "go invisible to card 5" before I do the "send"  Is there 
any other way?  It seems like there should be a way to do this without 
having to go to the card invisibly first (and have Revolution create the 
correct ID numbers).

Am I missing something?

Thanks!
