- Thanks to all those who posted, mailed on my last problem. It seems I've
- a new one. I took an index function straight out of "HyperCard Power"
- by Carol Kaehler. I typed it in as stated [I didn't use the soft return though],
- and it works. HOWEVER, I don't get any output on the screen, i.e. my index field
- is blank. For those of you with the book, it's the one on pp.347-350. For those
- of you who don't, this is the offending script:
-
- global changed
- put "" into card field "index" of card 1
- put the number of cards into cards
- repeat with cardNum = 2 to cards
- put line 1 of field "Title" of cardNum into line cardNum-1 of card [no return]
- field "index" of card 1
- end repeat
- put false into changed
-
- Again, thanks for the help...
