Strange hang

[Peter M. Brigham]

I believe that all you have to do is put the array element into a variable first before passing it to the command or function:

on mouseUp
  put 4 into aArray[1]
  put aArray[1] into msg
  put aArray[1] into tElement -- the important step
  put fAddNum(tElement) into tBobTest
  put cr & tBobTest after msg
end mouseUp
