If construction bug in 5.5.2 ?

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Robert,

The reason is that in 5.5.2 the select command may trigger the openField message. Maybe the following solves it:

on openField
  answer bla with "Yes" or "No" -- etc
  if it is "No" then
    select empty
  else
    lock messages
    select the text of me
    unlock messages
  end if
end openField

Best regards,
