Which one?
I found this one in a message from you earlier today:
-- button id 1003 of card id 1002 of stack "stack 2"
-- of stack "/Users/t/Desktop/stack.livecode"
<http://lists.runrev.com/pipermail/use-livecode/2015-August/217108.html>
When I pass that to the function shown above I get:
stack "stack 2" of stack "/Users/t/Desktop/stack.livecode"
What did you get?
Or was there another object long ID in this thread I'd missed?
