<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> Dear</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> yesterday evening I was trying to get the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> value(or name) of a submenu of popup list.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> let me explain it a litle bit</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> I have a Popup menu which is named Platform</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> when you klik on it you get a list of platforms</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> f.e. - PC</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> where am i going wrong?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>RR sends a 'menuPick' event upon selection of an item</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>in a menu button, so I suggest you look it up in the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Transcript language dictionary.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Set the script of your popup button to this:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>on menuPick pWhichItem</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> global gSomeGlobal</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> put pWhichItem into gSomeGlobal</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>end menuPick</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>If you want to know which item is currently selected,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>have a look at the 'menuHistory' property in the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Trascript language dictionary.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hope this helped,</FONT>
