After converting Mews (a mail & news reader) from HC 1.2.5 to 2.0, I encountered the following error message, when using the forward arrow button (or key):
	"Can't understand arguments to this keyword"
So I looked at the script for the offending button :

	on mouseup
		send Next to this card
	end mouseup

I tried putting quotes around 'Next', brackets around 'this card', but still the same error message.

The script for the back arrow is:
	
	on mouseup
		send Prev to this card
	end mouseup

and this works.

So, why does 'send Next to this card' no longer work in HyperCard 2?


 I tried replacing the call by simply 
	Prev
and 	Next
and the former still worked, but the latter didn't.

Has anyone else had similar problems? 
Any suggestions and help gratefully received.

Anne.
