Hi from sunny Brittany, Thanks to Eric, Phil, Beda and especially Tore.
I was so used to using keywords in button definitions to modify button parameters, that I didn't even look up "Menu" in the dictionary (Can't see the wood for the trees ?) Tore gave me little script routines which I can adapt to my requirements (great stuff !) Beda asked me a question in return (I said I could modify script "cases" with no problems) - a little vague !!!! You can change the script of a button completely with the command : set the script of button "abc" to field "xyz" (or a preset variable). Some of my menu button scripts contain "case" commands (which is what I meant .....). I change script content in my fields ** and buttons very often, to do rather tortuous things (which I will not describe here !) Now I am starting to do the same with "Drop-Down" menus. This is just the beginning ............. ** Beda, you can define a script for a field, lock the field and it works like a button when you click on it (it can be useful !)
