Hi Pete,
I have been working with your suggestions on the following script:
put the number of buttons of me into nbr
put 1 into x
repeat with n = 1 to nbr
put the short name of button n of me into tName
if not the hilite of button n of me then next repeat
add 1 to x
put x & "." & space & tName & cr after theList
end repeat
put round(the height of field "final" / the textheight of field "final",0)
into tMaxLines
put line 1 to tMaxLines of theList into field "final"
if x> tMaxLines then
put line tMaxLines+1 to x of thelist into field "final2"
show field "final2"
else
put empty into field "final2"
hide field "final2"
end if
This script works but I have encountered two significant problems. First, the
first checkbox that is checked and inserted into field "final" is numbered as
2. instead of 1. The second problem is that when field "final" is "filled up"
with the names of the checkboxes, the last checkbox name cannot be seen in
field "final" and consequently the next checkbox that is inserted into the next
field "final2" shows the next number. In other words, checkbox numbered 13 does
not show up in field "final" but checkbox numbered 14 appears in field
"final2". Do you have any suggestions?
