[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] Script in Hypercard 2.0 Fields

cjp310@coombs.anu.oz.au (Chris @ SSDA ...) (11/13/90)

Hi there,
		Recently I've installed HC 2.  Upon the conversion of stacks
I've found several conversion errors.  The main one being the conversion of
a stack called StackDumper 2.0   Which can extract all the text within fields
or all the scripts within a stack.  Now I've converted it using convert stack
in the menu I find that the compiler bugs out on the call which 
"Get the script of [background | card] field x"

However it accepts the same call which produces the line

"get the script of [background | card] button x"

My question is: What is going on here that this property of the field and the
button and other components are different ?  (or are they)

Thanks in advance
