Double-check that your stack reference is correct. Or just set the defaultstack to the one you're interested in, and drop the stack reference entirely from the command. That's usually easier besides. I thought maybe I'd just "select" the card first, then put the number of controls into theNumberOfControls, but that gives me the error: Can't select an object that isn't open. So it appears I can read the script of a card that isn't open but I can't select the card. Cards can't be selected. You can go to them, or refer to them, or get their contents in various ways, but they aren't technically either objects or controls themselves. They're more like containers. But for what you're doing, you don't need to select the card, just refer to it. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

I know group IDs can be repeated in different stacks but I specifically concerned with group IDs in a single stack. There is one serial number incrementer in a given atack, and every object is assigned the next available ID from that incrementer regardless of the object's type. You'll find that the first card of a new stack is always ID 1002, and every object added after that increments from there up. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Rev training and consulting: http://www.fourthworld.com Webzine for Rev developers: http://www.revjournal.com revJournal blog: http://revjournal.com/blog.irv ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Uniqueness of Group IDs
Now that Sarah solved my card name problems, I have a question about groups on stacks. I don't want to print out the script of a group more than once if it's repeated on several cards. My question is: Is the group ID unique in a stack or could I have a group 1010 on one card and group 1010 on a different card that is a completely different group? I know group IDs can be repeated in different stacks but I specifically concerned with group IDs in a single stack.
