shell command problem

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Thomas,

I get "handler not found" instead of "can't set property". At which  
line exactly does the error occur? Why don't you have hints in your  
error message? The hint line contains important information about the  
cause of the problem.

Have you tried executing the foloowing line?

put shell("/bin/iRed" && fld "myControl2")

If this doesn't work, either the command line utility is not where  
you think you have put it or the contents of the field is incorrect.  
If it does work, something is wrong with your script.

Best,

Mark
