What makes a line a line in a chunk expression?

[Len Morgan]

I wish it was that simple but if that DOES turn out to be the problem, 
there's something not quite right with Rev itself.  From an earlier 
post, I am comparing the pChoice that is passed by the menuPick handler 
with "the text of button "taskBar"" which is the button that sent me the 
pChoice in the first place so they should both be getting their data 
from the same object and should therefore be the same.

That is of course, unless the menuPick parameter is not a "true" line 
but I would think I'd get a "chunk types don't match" message or 
something like that.

This seems like a very simple thing but it's giving me fits!
