Collymore) Newsgroups: comp.sys.mac.hypercard Subject: How do I get HyperCard to return the value of a line? Message-ID: <1195@atux01.UUCP> Date: 11 May 89 19:12:58 GMT Organization: AT&T CSEd/CET, Piscataway, N.J. Lines: 12 Is there any way in HyperCard (HC) 1.2.1 that I can have a "find" locate something on a specified field, return some value for the line that the searched for object resides on in that field, and then use the "put" command to clear out the found object on the designated line? If you have any ideas, please let me know. Thanks. Jim Collymore p.s. If there are any public domain, or shareware, XCMDs or XFCNs that can do this sort of thing, please tell me where I can get it.
