Ken, I'm sorry you're having problems, but like any language, you need to learn the basics.

Why do you have to come to this forum? - because support is very expensive, and Runrev has this wonderful, helpful culture that will answer your questions. If runrev had to deliver the quality of support you wanted, you'd have to pay for it. It's not because they're mean, it's because they're sticking to their business plan. They're a very small company and they very much want to survive.

I just read the excellent new 2.7 user's guide (userguide.pdf) that steps through how everything works....This is really well-done.

Ken, I don't know if you bought a copy of Rev or is just working with a demo, but between the user guide and the scripting conference stacks, the info is there.

You're mind is still trying to bend rev to the way other languages work...
You'll get it soon and will be one of the ones on this list giving advice.

Thanks Alex

I'll copy and paste that into my Rev tips file, so I remember it's a
parameter name.  I still do not understand how pWhich can tell that I've
picked a menu item like Quit (or Open, or anything else).
So, how does a pWhich identify what's been picked?  (you see the dimensions
of my ignorance).

Comment for Rev support:
I have to wonder why I had to go to a user forum and rely on helpful others
to provide this information.  If it's a convention (ie something "everyone"
knows, and follows) one can only wonder why it doesn't seem to appear in the
Rev dictionary.  I did a fairly thorough search, and I supposed it might be
a parameter (among other things), so I put in parameter as a search term and
scrolled thru the list of parameters, and failed to find it.  If it is such
a common convention, how come?
Answer: Everybody knows this...
Reply:  No, they don't.... but if you want Rev to be scripting for the rest
of us, you'll have to make it a bit easier to find it out.

Thanks Alex.  As you can see, I have another agenda going here but I
appreciate all the help I can get.  I need lots.

regards
Ken
