Thanks Steve, but I couldn't get your suggestion to work. Sounded
like a good idea, though. Here's an example of what I'd like to have
happen.
Script of btn 1:
on mouseup
repeat with i = 1 to 10000
put i
if i = 200 then tryit
end repeat
end mouseup
on tryit
---do something here that stops the repeat loop from running
end tryit
Here's the tough part... I can't know in advance where the running
script is originating. I simply know something is running somewhere
in my stack, and whatever it is, I want to abort it via script control.
Thanks.
Richard
