I am needing some help with Hypercard. Just starting to create a my first
stack, and I need to create a button which puts up the message box with
the following command script:
   
              find "" in field "<fieldname>"

What I want to do for the user is to have all the text in the find command
execpt for the text that he/she will be looking for. Is there anyway to
do this in my button script? If there is I am interested in knowing how
it can be.
