Another question.
I have a list of numbers let us say from 1-1000. if I place them
in a scrollable field (one number per line), is it possible
write a script so that when a user click on a number then I will know
on which one he click on?
The reason for this is that I have a stack that has 1000 cards.
so I wantto create a table of content card so that a user can jump to
any card he likes without scanning one by one.
also I don't want the user to have to type a number in a field or
have to pull the the go menu and use find or message command.
This is why I want to have a scrollable list of numbers that a user
can select from to jump to the appropriate card.

any help or suggestions?
