Haven't tried, but I always use parentheses with URL, so try

put url ("http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?center="&;  fld "place"&  
"&zoom=8&size=512x512&maptype=roadmap&sensor=false") into someimage

This works:

put url

 into someimage
put someimage into image 1



But when I use the text in a field in building the url it breaks - I get a "bad 
request 400 error" from the Google server:

put url "http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?center="&;  fld "place"&  
"&zoom=8&size=512x512&maptype=roadmap&sensor=false" into someimage
put someimage into image 1

What am I missing? When I write the string out to the message box and then 
paste that into the url field in my browser, it works fine.
