This should be:

set curName to the name of generic box 1 whose uniqueID is curID

(I'm fairly sure you should also be able to refer simply to "generic box id
curID", too, but for some reason that's not compiling here at the moment.)

Try something like:

set name of text box 1 whose name is curName and selected is true to ("Copy
Box " & groupNum)

You might have to play with that a bit.

> set name of picture box curName whose selected is true to ("Image Box " &
groupNum & lastChar)

See above.
