It works in HC on my computer, but not in MC, so I figured it was an MC thing. But if it works on OS X in MC... ? T'any rate, as long as I can get it to work someway, I'm happy! I forgot how forgiving HC was about many things.

Re: if/then with and/or
<< if var1 is "goody" and var2 is "nope" and var3 is "hello" then doSomething end if >> I think you'll find parentheses solve your problem- although "and"s maybe should work anyway, "or"s are downright ambiguous without them. So... try this (or some variation): This is the heavy version, but it's the most clear, IMHO. if ( ((var1 is "goody") and (var2 is "nope")) and (var3 is "hello") ) then doSomething end if You could certainly get away with simpler versions such as: if (var1 is "goody" and var2 is "nope") and (var3 is "hello") then doSomething end if HTH, Brian ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard
Re: if/then with and/or
Shari, Try: if ((var1 is "goody") and (var2 is "nope") and (var3 is "hello")) then doSomething end if See if that works.

if/then with and/or
Okay, now this one's bugging me... If my if/then handler includes and/or, it fails. if var1 is "goody" and var2 is "nope" and var3 is "hello" then doSomething end if That fails. if var1 is "goody" then if var2 is "nope" then if var3 is "hello" then doSomething end if end if end if That works. ? -- --Shareware Games for the Mac-- http://www.gypsyware.com ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard
