Three remarks. 1. the filename ends up in the message box if you dont use the "whatever" ;-) 2. textchanged is also a script ;-) 3. Your method doesn't work for locked fields, the following does: on dragDrop if "files" is among the keys of the dragData then put line 1 of the dragData["files"] into fn focus on me; put the selectedChunk into sc put fn into the selection if sc is not empty then select char (word 2 of sc) to \ (word 2 of sc +len(fn)-1) of me end if end dragDrop on dragEnter set the dragAction to "copy" end dragenter _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
