Guys--

Right. Note, however, that the parent story of a cell is a text object, not a story object.

Try something like this:



--Given a cell "myCell", delete the last character if it is a return. 
if contents of character -1 of parent story of myCell is return then 
		tell character -1 of parent story of myCell 
			delete 
		end tell 
end if 




Thanks,

Ole
