It probably shouldn’t have parsed `create field stack “Whatever”` ever. I’m not sure what you are intending myself. Do you want a field named `stack “Whatever”` or do you want a field created on stack “Whatever”? For the former then you probably want: create field “stack” && quote & “Whatever” & quote For the latter then you probably want: set the defaultStack to “Whatever” create field “MyField" or create field “MyField” in group “somegroup” of stack “Whatever" Cheers Monte _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
