Just a SWAG and not tested, but have you tried changing the offending line to:

set the label of field labelName of stack "Armbase" to the name of field labelName of stack "Armbase"?

Since you've successfully changed its name, you should be able to use this to change the label, eh?

Hi All.
I have a button that copies a label from one stack to another stack.

the code changes the name OK but I want to change the visible text in the label.

the code is
on mouseUp
global tFileName
copy field "LabelName" of stack "Armbase" to card 1 of stack tFileName
set the name of field LabelName of stack tFileName to field LabelNewName of stack "Armbase"
--the above is OK and copies the label and changes its name to the contents of a field
set the label of field LabelName of stack tFileName to field LabelNewName of stack "Armbase"
--this one above generates an error
end mouseUp


I tried using the words contents and name etc in thelast line but without any luck.

Any ideas. I'm sure this is simple.

cheers
bob
