Hi,
There is no file quote & it & quote, but there is a file it. Quotes are
used to define a string in a script. If you put quotes in a variable,
they become part of that string. The following script will work:
on mouseUp
answer file "Select a file."
put it into thisFile
open file thisFile
read from file thisFile until EOF
put it into field myOutput
close file thisFile
end mouseUp
