bert,
<br/><br/>thanks. I heard something ding when I dragged it, but nothing happened. I couldn’t find the item on the menus.
<br/><br/>Sincerely,
<br/><br/>Joe.

<br/>> That’s one way to do it.

<br/>> You can also drag that instance variable from the inspector to the workspace, which will create a variable reference.

<br/>> In the latest trunk image this should work seamlessly: If you drop an Array, the workspace variable will be named something like “array12345” and be bound to that Array.
<br/>>
<br/>> In the stable release image, you have to first enable the workspace’s “accept dropped morphs” flag from its menu button. It will create a variable named “transfer12345” and put the morph in it. You will have to refer to the Array as “transfer12345 passenger”.
