- Here is a little script:
- on AddCard
- doMenu Copy Card
- doMenu Paste Card
- ask "Please enter the strain name for this card."
- put it into Card Name:
- end AddCard
-
- Does anyone know how to get hypercard to copy a specific card from
- anywhere else in the stack? That is, when a user clicks on the AddCard
- button, I would like the stack to copy a template card located
- elsewhere and place it where the user is. I guess a round-about way
- of doing it would be for hypercard to take the user *to* the template
- card and copy it and then ask the user to go to where they want it to
- be and then paste it, but...
- Also, the 'put it into Card Name:' obviously does not work.
- What qualifier am I missing???
