There is a strange bug in the Find command. In the Phone stack, try to Find "ann". You can't. Strangely enough, you can Find "arbor"--and darned if it isn't part of the name "Ann Arbor". Find "an" doesn't work either, as I recall. I tried retyping "Ann Arbor", cutting and pasting, and putting it in another card. No luck. This worked on three different HyperCard installations; does it work on yours? This kind of worries me, since the Find functionality is a major part of HyperCard's appeal. -- Walter Smith, CS graduate student, Carnegie-Mellon University uucp: ...!seismo!cmucspt!wrs ?
