run this ( ^..^)ﾉ

[Mariasole]

Ciao a tutti!
I'm doing another experiment with LC.
It is probably a stupid thing , 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?
I have attached an example!
Thanks to everyone if you will help me yet...

What are you trying to achieve ?

[Mariasole]

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!

in the button "runthis"

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   --execute the code of field "EditableCode" ---> pig code!!!!
   put fld "editablecode" into temp
   set the script of fld "targetfield" to temp
   send "mouseUp" to fld "targetfield"
end mouseUp

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?

Thanks Craig,
I had also tried the "do" function but it did not work !
I tried the solution of Dixie and it works perfectly .
Dixie Thanks for your time and for your expertise!
Thanks Craig for having come to help!
A kiss to you both!

Hola Mariasole,

I had also tried the "do" function but it did not work!

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!
If I could write with the nuances of my mother tongue!
Thank you all!

yes, that's what I meant, too, although I did not explicitely mention it

If I could write with the nuances of my mother tongue!

Don't worry, your post and question were undoubtful!
