I don't know if this applies, but it might.
The long id of an object can be used where an object reference is expected. It
can be a way to reference the object in any context. You can pass the value to
functions.
Example:
on mouseUp
put the long id of field "Field" into f
doSomething f
end mouseUp
command doSomething lid
set the text of f to "Start"
set the startTime of f to the long seconds
move f relative 10,0
end doSomething
As you can see, you have to 'set the text' rather than use 'put' to change the
value in a field.
