You offer an interesting suggestion. Thanks. Every card fld "Card Name" has data so I don't know what might be gained by examining each card then marking it. There aren't that many cards in each stack. With HC anyway the restriction is 32k characters in the IndexField which lists all the cards by name and ID. Rev has a higher fld limit so this restriction is lifted. On these newer computers speed of execution doesn't pose an issue. Even with adding in a "sort cards of stack" line it takes about 1/2 (or less) of a second to complete this script. I will try your "(option : sort lines of index1 by item 1 of each)", that might improve general UI performance.

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
