I have two versions of a script. The first uses an implicit send and
works. The second uses a call and does not work. I was trying to
simplify and expand my scripting abilities with call, but I must be
missing something, because I can't see what is wrong with it. I
appreciate any insights.

Working script of field "PN1":
on mouseUp
SaveMeTxt (token 1 to 5 of the long name of me)"e --this form
is used because the name is reused in different groups
end mouseUp
Script in the card:
global SetName,PN1
on SaveMeTxt myName --save the fld text
do "set the data"&SetName&" of "&myName&" to "&myName --save fld
contents
do "put "&myName&" into "&the short name of myName --fill shadow
global
end SaveMeTxt
