I am not sure I understand.
If "myButton" has a handler in its script called "loadData", then the dispatch command should work regardless of any behaviors. This is direct, message-bypassing, er, behavior. If the behavior of that other control, was set to the long id of "myButton", then simply invoking "loadData" from that control would cause the handler in "myButton" to fire. Is this what you are seeing? Or not seeing?

That should work, shouldn't it? _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ 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
