Ihave a pip up menu that I am executing a case statement based on the choices. I want to know if I can call the elemtents in the case statement from say a button whose function is to select the previous case statement from the current chosen one.
so I have a case statement
on popupbutton
switch foo

case "isfoo"
etc
etc
break
case "is isfoo"
etc
etc
break
end popupbutton

It works when I use the popup button where it resides...

I want to call case "isfoo" from an alternate button on the card say a tnextButton

on mouseup
call the case element "isfoo"

end mouseup
does any of that make sense?

Hey I have version 2.9 there is not a dispatch command in this version.. thanks though

In that case, revert back to the good ol' send command: Of course you'll have to add a formal parameter to your popupbutton handler.
