Hi Dennis,

Just a comment about your script:
You use 3 non exclusive conditional structures and then the engine  
will have to test all of them.
You might prefer something like:

if word 1 of it is "button" then put it & cr after btnList
else if word 1 of it is "field" then put it & cr after fldList

"if it contains "label field" then next repeat" is unnecessary and  
redundant :-)

Just my two cents.
Best regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.
