Hi David,

Hi All,

I am trying to write some generic code to send "Increment" events to another object. This works ok:

send "Increment 1" to graphic the cPropTargetObjectName of me
however to make it more general I would like to be able to have the type soft coded, to be able to write


put "graphic" into myType
send "Increment 1" to myType the cPropTargetObjectName of me

So I looked around and found the "do" command, and did this:
put "graphic" into myType
put "send Increment 1" && myType && the cPropTargetObjectName of me into myDoText
do myDoText


But this results in the following error:
Object: value is not a boolean
Object: Arrows
Line: do myDoText
Hint: 1

I have checked the text in myDoText and it's fine and reads:

send Increment 1 to graphic "G-1027"

I don't understand why I am getting this error? Any ideas anyone?

Hmmm, maybe you need to put quotes around the command to be sent?

put "send" && QUOTE & "Increment 1" & QUOTE & ...

At least worth a try... :-)

Also how can I get the type of an object?
Is there a property for it? I can't seem to find one!

Try:

word 1 of the name of control x
## where x = the numer or the name of the control...

-> field "Field 1"
-> button id 1004
-> scrollbar "mySC"
...

Hope that helps...

Thanks in advance
Dave
