The engine can not delete an object whose script is currently executing. This has been a long know issue in LiveCode, but I am not sure it has been documented In the Dictionary for "Delete" there is a warning: "Important! You cannot delete the object whose script holds a currently executing handler." but no explaination of the typical work-around below. on mouseUp put the long id of me into tTarget send "delete tTarget" to me in 0 ticks end mouseUp So I guess you have to use "Assisted Suicide" since you need to send a message to the engine to delete the object after it's script is done. _______________________________________________ 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
