No crashes or errors, I just didn’t get back the data I expected.
Does it really have anything to do with message paths?
I just expected
the long id of field1 of card 1
to do what it says, that is, to return a specifier to (the instance of) field 1
on card 1. At the time I was iterating th

You are correct; I missed that the “long iD” was used, and that expression
includes the work “field”. LC can then use that as a valid reference.

You can find the definition of both send and dispatch in the dictionary.
So an example of Dispatch being called from a card of a substack would be:
put the long id of me into tParentCard
dispatch extract to card "Main" of stack "Forms Generator" with tRecordA,
tParentCard, tExclusions

I just glanced at this. Down at the very beginning, I noticed something odd.
One cannot do anything with “the text" of a variable; that would not throw an
error, but would always be empty, no?

Hi Bob,
I need more detail how to word the command. No need to send in time, just how
to call that function on a card not in the message path. Thanks!

Send in you need in time. Dispatch if you are not sure the handler exists in
the target. Dispatch will not throw an error if there is no handler.

This makes sense.
I’m unclear as to how I would structure the command to call a function in a
card that’s not in the message path.

I’m wondering if there is a way from within LC to
make a video recording of what is going on within
a rect in a macOS LC app. Recording audio at
the same time would also be a big plus.
Anyone with good ideas or suggestions for what
I might be able to do?
Thanks,
Rick

Your point brings up something that was discussed before on this list. It's
going to be cleaner in the long run to "compartmentalize" your handlers so that
a handler is not trying access objects that are not in the message path, or
