Nice thing about Rev - you don't have to specify where an object is, unless there is more than one of that type of object with the same name. If you have imported a HyperCard stack, then HCaddressing is turned on and that does use the card/background nomenclature, but for a new stack, it doesn't matter - just call them all by unique names and you don't have to worry. Cheers, Sarah P.S. I don't frequent the forums so I can't answer for them, but there is certainly no problem about asking any questions on this list. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
