Auto-numbering in a field

[dunbarx at aol.com]

How are you "deleting all"? Are you saying that if you:


put empty into field "yourField"


the "1." stays? What happens if you ask for char 1 to 2 of the text of the field? Do you get "1.", or "fi"?


I am not on a computer with MS Word, But I will try it soon.

Subject: Auto-numbering in a field


If I paste an auto-numbered text from Microsoft Word (albeit on a Mac) into a
field, I can't seem to delete the very first number no matter what I do.   I
can delete the text, and all the numbers but the very first one.   I'm in
the "contents" box of the properties window.  I can't select it, and there's
no way to turn it off that I know of, because I don't think Livecode even
has autonumbering.   Short of deleting the field and starting over (which is
what I've had to do), is there a way to fix this?   Is it a bug?

   1.   first line
   2.   second line
   3.   third line

Delete all

   1.
