Ciao a tutti!
I'm doing another experiment with LC. 8)
It is probably a stupid thing :oops: , I searched the forum but can not find anything (certainly for my fault and my limited English!). How do I run a script in a field? :shock:
I have attached an example! :wink:
Thanks to everyone if you will help me yet...

Ciao Dixie!
I'm trying to create a button "programmable" through external files (.txt). The external files contain the code, so that it can not build thousand applications per thousand needs! 8)

Hi.

If I understand correctly, try this. Make a field on a new card. Put this text in it:

answer random(999)

Make a button with this in its script:

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   do fld 1
end mouseUp
Does this help?

Hola Mariasole,

yep, you can only DO a COMMAND and not a complete script with handlers (mouseup) and included functions!
That's why Dixies advice will be the only solution to your special problem.

Caro Klaus!
It 's true! I meant that in my case "do" does not work! :wink:
If I could write with the nuances of my mother tongue! :roll:
Thank you all!
