It was an option menu, but a combo box will do.

What I want is a preference stack with a box or menu that has things on it
like
2 fields
3 fields
4 fields

Depending on the choice, it adds the script into a button. eg a ficticious
one.
on mouseup
copy 3 fields to stack xyz
end mouseup


IE it is a way of allowing the enduser to modify the function of a button
from a list of choices.

Cheers
Bob
