Interesting. I added the exit to top yesterday because it seemed to fix the responsiveness problem. It has been working without exit to top and pass dragdrop of over 2 years. I think it's because I am not acually allowing the drop to happen, but rather intercepting it, getting the dragData ["text"] and entering it into the field by script (would that be scripturally??) which might explain why the window becomes unresponsive the way I am doing it. The drop never *actually* happens, and that explains why exit to top corrects the issue.
So here is the new code and this works a peach! on dragDrop put cleanASCII(the dragData ["text"], cModeList, cCustomChars) into tDragData put titleCase(tDragData, false) into tDragData -- capitalize first letter of each word set the dragData ["text"] to tDragData pass dragDrop end dragDrop The trick then is to allow the drop to happen, but clean up the dragData ["text"] first! Now it makes perfect sense. Thanks Jacque! Now I get to refactor the refactored refactorization that was initially refactored some time ago. <sigh> Bob S > On Mar 24, 2017, at 12:21 , J.
