Parameter passing scares me so I'm staying away from that right now :lol: Don't be scared, this is really simple stuff! Check this easy peasy example :D Here you define a number as a parameter for the routine "do_the_beep" on mouseup put 3 into tNumberOfBeeps do_the_beep tNumberOfBeeps end mouseup ...

Hi, Magice,

I only used the if statement because it's a function I'm more used to (the tasks I've done for LiveCode in the past involved if statements). I'll give those scripts a go with my program once I'm at school again though.

Now that I know how to store the name of what I click, I've set mouseUp on the card to this: on mouseUp put the short name of the target into check_answer1 if check_answer1 = "Answ...
