Hi,
If the amount of cards is considerable then you can gain some time by changeing the script to:


on mouseUp
put empty into field "IndexField"
-- DON'T visit each card
mark cards where fld "Card Name" <> empty
repeat with x = 1 to the number of marked cds
put (field "Card Name") of marked cd i & ";" && the ID of marked cd i \
& return after index1
end repeat
unmark all cds
go to card 2 -- go to card 2 "Index Card" -- If you were on cd 2 originally you can omit this line
sort index1 -- sort data within variable (option : sort lines of index1 by item 1 of each )
put index1 into field "IndexField" -- put data into Index Field
put number of chars in field "IndexField" into field "Characters"
put number of lines in field "indexfield" into field "Line Count"
unlock screen
end mouseUp


Have a nice day,
WA

Hi,

I finally bit the bullet and purchased a copy of Revolution to convert
my HC stacks. I'm having trouble with a simple repeat loop:


-- visit each card
repeat with x = 3 to the number of cards
go to card x
if field "Card Name" <> empty
then put (field "Card Name") & ";" && the ID of this card & return
after index1
end repeat


This returns an error "Handler: end doesn't match handler name". Makes
no sense to me and I can't find anything wrong with the script. Can
someone help me out with this?



My specialty is the simple-minded solution. Forgive me, but did you
check the spelling of the handler in which the above repeat loop is
included--or perhaps other handlers in the same script? There
certainly doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the repeat loop itself.


Jim

Jim and Roger,


Thanks for your pointers! I found an error further on in the script
(actually two errors). One was an unassociated repeat and the other
appeared to be an abbreviated "fld" instead of field or maybe it was the
'go to card "Index"' which when changed to 'go to card "2"' worked.
Seems Rev doesn't like abbreviations nor does it point well to the
actual bug. The script works great now! Here is the complete and
working script:


on mouseUp
  put empty into field "IndexField"
  lock screen
  -- visit each card
  repeat with x = 3 to the number of cards
    go to card x
    if field "Card Name" <> empty then
      put (field "Card Name") & ";" && the ID of this card \
          & return after index1
    end if
  end repeat
  go to card 2 -- go to card 2 "Index Card"
  sort index1   -- sort data within variable
  put index1 into field "IndexField" -- put data into Index Field
  put number of chars in field "IndexField" into field "Characters"
  put number of lines in field "indexfield" into field "Line Count"
 unlock screen
end mouseUp
