For example, a btn on cd 1 does

   send dostuff to btn 3 of cd 2

handler dostuff in btn 3 on cd 2 has

   show fld 1

This will fail unless you are on this card (using go in btn on cd 1 
as Klaus suggested). However,

   show fld 1 of cd 2

will work with the send without having to go. This will work just 
fine if executed by clicking btn 3 on cd 2, if its mouseUp is

mouseUp
   dostuff
end mouseUp

Having "of cd 2" in the object reference is what I meant by full 
reference. Of course, normally, one would use names of objects.
