thanks, Rob. the Dictionary says, "The <message box> keyword indicates the message box... "The two-word synonyms message box, message window, msg box, and msg window can be used only to show and hide the message box. To put a value into the message box or read the value in the message box, use the one-word forms message and msg."
in MC i got good results using the name of the msg stack and the msg text fld. in RR, openstacks() includes "Message Box". i would like to put the full name of the msg field into a function theMsg() that would be tidy in a script. best to wait for 2.0, then see what works, maybe create a field "myMsg" and use that. --- Rob Cozens <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >can one get the exact name of the msg fld & > >stack? > > Hi Eric, > > I just played with this with ClickClock.

If I remember corectly, "if > message is not empty" didn't work either. ===== [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.erikhansen.org __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
