I tried to find a way of doing this without "do" commands, but… function stackOf tObjLongID replace " of " with numtochar(8) in tObjLongID set the itemdelimiter to numtochar(8) put item -1 of tObjLongID into tStack do "put the short name of " && tStack && "into stackName" return stackName end stackOf function cardOf tObjLongID replace " of " with numtochar(8) in tObjLongID set the itemdelimiter to numtochar(8) put item -2 to -1 of tObjLongID into tCard replace numtochar(8) with " of " in tCard do "put the short name of" && tCard && "into cdName" return cdName end cardOf function groupOf tObjLongID if " group " is not in tObjLongID then return empty replace " of " with numtochar(8) in tObjLongID set the itemdelimiter to numtochar(8) put item -3 to -1 of tObjLongID into tGp replace numtochar(8) with " of " in tGp do "put the short name of" && tGp && "into gpName" return gpName end groupOf Can't do "stack of…" but you can do "stackOf(tLongID)" -- Peter Peter M.
