YesNo problem again

[Barry Kahn]

Sorry, Mail no longer seems to let me cut and paste without losing  
formatting. Here's the question again:

I'm sending some array output to a second database and would like to  
have a dialog to select whether to append to or replace the data in  
the target db.

I have this:

yesno "Add to existing data? (No will replace)"
if clipboard() contains "Yes"
call AppendToFile
else
call ReplacetheFile
endif	

AppendtoFile is this:

OpenFile "DB_9 all_items"
Window "DB_9 all_items"
OpenFile "+ at theExportText"

and the ReplacetheFile replaces the + with &.


When I run it, I get "Sorry, the file won't open" --
although the target DB does become the front window.
Suggestions very welcome--as usual, I bet it's something
simple.

Thanks,
bk
