what about if you put the trace inside the tell target what values do you
get?

Helen,

I agree, one of those SHOULD work... but does not. Here's the piece of
code:

On (Release)
Set Variable: "n" = Substring (GetProperty("",_name), 7, Length (

GetProperty("",_name))-6 )
Set Property ("../button"&n, Visibility) = false
Set Variable: "location" = linkname
Begin Tell Target ("../../../../../")
Go to and Play (location)
End Tell Target
Trace (linkname)
Trace (location)
End On

As I mentioned earlier, the trace's return the correct values... so it
SHOULD work.
Go figure.

Patrick
