Thank you very much: I'll get back to work.

You aren't actually providing a line number. Try this..
repeat with i = 1 to the number of lines in field "mm"
switch (line i of fld "mm" is empty)
case true
break
case false
break
end switch
end repeat
Though if you have a LOT of lines you'd be better off adjusting it to use
repeat for each and running a separate counter...
put 1 into tCounter
repeat for each line tLine in field "mm
switch (tLine is empty)
case true
-- the line is empty, tcounter contains the number of the
line
break
case false
-- the line is NOT empty, tcounter contains the number of
the line
break
end switch
add 1 to tCounter -- increment to keep tCounter in sync with the line number
end repeat

I have a list field where each line may contain a number or be empty.
I need a SWITCH statement that checks the state of each line . . .
This is throwing a "bluey":
switch line number of fld "MM" is empty
Where am I going wrong?
Richmond.
