Hi.

If I understand what you want, do this:
1- Make two fields. Name one "NewText" and the other "lineToChange"
2 - Make a button and put this into its script:

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   put "A" & return & "B" & return & "C" into testVar
   put fld "NewText" into line (fld "lineToChange") of testVar
   answer testVar
end mouseUp

To pay for this extraordinary effort on my part, please step through the handler and watch what happens in the debugger.
