Joel, My point exactly is that it runs like "do", which means that if you need to put quotes around multiword items. In fact it's probably useful to quote all variables that are being passed. So the script that works is this:
on mouseUp put "Hello Ken Ray" into tMyVar put "Goodbye" into tAnotherVar answer value("getSomeData(1,the date," & q(tMyVar)& "," & q(tAnotherVar) & ")",btn 2) end mouseUp function q what return quote & what & quote end q > I suggest to stop this thread discussion because there is no > simple implementation. I will use the call instruction and > request a new feature... Don't get me wrong, Joel... I personally prefer the elegance of the function "via" in SuperCard than with an extension to the value() function, and I support your request for this feature.
