How do you do it??

Mike.


Not sure I am getting this. I have two fields, one with several lines of text ("fld 1").


on mouseUp
  put fld 1 into foo
  do "put" && foo && "into fld 2"
end mouseUp


This fails. If fld 1 contains only one line, no problem, as everyone but me seems to know. Please tell me again. 


Thanks,


Craig

Well yeah because "do" is a unit.  part fails, all fail so the AA never
gets to the msg box. Explanation still stands though.
