another crash variation

There seems to be something more to it, Brad.

I created a two-card stack with a field and a button on card two.  I 
put your three-line script in the button and pasted text from your 
eMail in the field.

The button handler gives me no problem whether or not text in the 
field is selected.

The best way to find out what is happening is to run the script in 
the debugger and press "Step Into" on "go card one"
