I might do as follows:
in data packed systems, I generally find it helpful to pass gui-targeted values through arrays.

hth,

how about this opening step (or variations with/without leading or trailing qoute): as for line deletion, try smth like:
look up "delete chunk" in the dictionary

Of the modifiers, relevant to filtering ASCII, only SHIFT seems to be of importance.

I have just tried it & hence, it's good to go!

it must be referring to the name of the main card, not the filename.
Just rename it, or refraining from opening both files at the same time.

Klaus, not sure, what bug you're talking about. My IDE is the old & updated Revolution 4.5 and I have successfully tested methods 1 and 3, with the keydown triggered ok. 3d way, being regex, should work no matter what, right? Maybe, cheer up and try 122 (letter z)? :) on keyDown pKey if charToNum(pK...

As for declaring vars, I come from compiled languages and well know the importance.

I have a tip for those annoyed by the LC way of assigning variables. [I didn't find the issue addressed on the forum - prior to posting] So, my solution is in using custom functions (FileMaker-like fashion): let a, 1 ("put 1 into a") leta a, 1 ("put 1 after a") letb a, 1 ("put 1 before a") Though th...
