Scott, when you execute the "do", it's getting the text of the button and passing that along instead of the long id that's coming into "routeTheCommand". To make it not evaluate it, call: routeTheCommand "getTheSum","the long id of btn 1" -- put quotes around the second param The other way you could do it would be to insert "the long id of " before theArgs if you knew it was an object reference that was coming in: command routeTheCommand put word 2 to -1 of the params into commandData put stripOuterQuotes(item 1 of commandData) into theCommand put stripOuterQuotes(item 2 to -1 of commandData) into theArgs put "the long id of " before theArgs do theCommand && theArgs end routeTheCommand Funky, but it works… :D Ken Ray Sons of Thunder Software, Inc.
