Paul,
"current" is a synonym of "this".
When you search for "current" you will see "this" among the hits. Click on
"this" and you will find "current" as a synonym.
LC dictionary does
In LC968 or 969rc2 the Dictionary has an entry for the 'currentCard'
used either as a property:
put the currentCard of stack "X" -- put the short name of the currently
displayed card in stack X
It appears the following syntax is also valid, but slightly different:
puttheshortnameofcurrent
the short name of this stack
put the short name of this card
I get the current card I’m on. But, the references to the objects on that
card require:
put myText into field “myField” of cd “myCard” of stack “myStack”
instead of
put myText into field “myField”
Is there a way I can get
. If I put in
a breakpoint and use the message box to do:
put the short name of this stack
put the short name of this card
I get the current card I’m on. But, the references to the objects on that

I'm probably missing something really obvious but how do you get the
id/name of the current open card in a stack?
If the stack is the topstack, I'm looking at line 1 of the recentCards, not
sure if that is the easiest way to do it or how reliable it is, but how

Hi,
How would I refer to the current card of the topStack, or any open stack,
without actually going to that stack?
Do I have to send a message to it to get that info?

Hi Jim...
Just had a quick test... two cards each with a field...

find jim in field id 1004
end mouseUp
Without using the id, it finds 'Jim' in both fields as you are seeing. Using
the id of the field it only looks in the one field.
be well
finds the string in the field
theText and a second click on the same line finds the next instance of the
string in the same field.
But if, on subsequent clicks, it fails to find the string in the field
theText on the current card, it goes looking for the string on any other
card with a field
finds the string in the field
theText and a second click on the same line finds the next
instance of the string in the same field.
But if, on subsequent clicks, it fails to find the string in the

on any other card with a field
