Or, here's something for your library, so you can call it from a script or from the message box: function expandError tErr repeat for each line e in tErr put item 1 of e into errNbr put item 2 of e into tLineNbr put item 3 of e into tCharNbr put errNbr & " (line" && tLineNbr & "," && "char" && tCharNbr & "):" && \ line errNbr of the cErrorsList of card 1 of stack "revErrorDisplay" \ into tErrMsg put tErrMsg & cr after errorlist end repeat if char -1 of errorlist = cr then delete char -1 of errorlist return errorlist end expandError -- Peter Peter M.
