On mouseUp local tObj local tQuotedObj put the short name of button 1 into tObj put quote & tObj & quote into tQuotedObj do "put the" && tObj --do "put the" && tQuotedObj End mouseUp
So if I fix your code to work (as above), and use a button with the short name set to an existing property, it'll output the property. However, that is completely expected, as using a string that results in a property will give you the property.
Coincidentally, using the above script with a button that is not a property, will just give you an error. So your code is only useful if the button is expected to be named as a property to begin with, and your code would be faulty if that is not the sole purpose of it.
The commented line 'do "put the" && quote & "existingProperty" & quote' should in my opinion result in an error, but puts the actual text entered. However, RunRev will argue that this is a design decision, not a bug (At least i'd guess they would).
To verify, enter 'put the "something"' into the message box (no single quotes).
