Hi Mike
Thanks for your response. I should have explained why I was asking such a
question.
I’m planning on writing some library functions for testing that can be called
from either a GUI stack or a server script. When called from a GUI script it
will display its results in a Field, when called from a server script it will
displays its result in the console.
I’m trying to find a better way than:
if the environment is “server” then
put tResult
else
put tResult after Field tReport
end
