Here's a bhv that changes the text randomly. Define a string that contains all the characters you think should be allowed. Randomize a number between (1 and the length of the string). Get the corresponding character from the string, put it at the end of the new text. Repeat as long as the new text is shorter that the old text. Is this what you mean? -A. ------------------------------------ on mouseDown me approvedChars = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789" newText = "" repeat with charNr = 1 to sprite(me.spriteNum).member.text.length randomCharIndex = random(approvedChars.length) newChar = approvedChars.char[randomCharIndex] put newChar after newText end repeat sprite(me.spriteNum).member.text = newText end ------------------------------------ [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
