I do this like that (just copied from an existing app):
 
lock screen 
create group "gLegendKeeper" in group "gLegend" of card "mainCard" 
repeat with i=1 to 100 
put "f" & i into gName 
create field gName in group "gLegendKeeper" of group "gLegend" of card 
mainCard" 
set the left of field fName of card "mainCard" to (myLeft + 22) 
set the top of field fName of card "mainCard" to graphicTop 
end repeat 
unlock screen 
 
note that a new group "gLegendkeeper" is created to make it easy to delete
the created fields when necessary by simply deleting the whole group.
 
All the best
Viktoras

Subject: create field on specific positoin 
 
Hi, 
 
i need to create several fields, 3 at a line, from a script. The number of
fields depends on the number of lines a textfile contains. Each field then
must contain an item of the text file. Excatly said, 3 items of each line of
the text file have to be put into the 3 fields. 
Creating the fields from within the script should be no problem. 
 
My problem is, i do not know: 
 
How can i place the fields automatically on a specific postion, so i have 3
fields on each line? 
 
How would you name them, so they could be accessed later.? 
e.g. Field_1_3 should mean field from line 1, which contains item 3 from
line 1 of the textfile 
 
Regards, 
 
Matthias
