Trouble deleting a line of text

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Bill,

You don't miss anything. I believe that this works as expected in  
HyperCard, but not in Revolution. You can add this problem to the bug  
report <http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=6988> or  
create a new bug report.

I solved it like this:

do "delete" && the clickLine

Best,

Mark
