merge([[ 1 + 2 ]] = 3) produces a script error, this should read merge("[[ 1 + 2 ]] = 3"). Merge is the one and only function to do *multiple* replacements in large strings in *one* shot. This is especially *very* important when setting wordy strings like htmltext (or emails, as JLG denoted). _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
