…tain the x0028 opcode. The relevant (I think) entries in the QuickDraw documentation are:

Opcode Name Description Bytes of additional data
$0028 LongText txLoc (Point), count (0..255), text 5 + text
$002B DHDVText dh (0..255), dv (0..255), count (0..255), text 3 + text

So, I modified my script to allow for either opcode. Now I can copy a field object from an AppleWorks database layout, then run this:

property x002B : (ASCII character 0) & (ASCII character 43) -- QuickDraw DHDVText opcode
property x0028 : (ASCII character 0) & (ASCII character 40) -- QuickDraw LongText opcode

Hello

When someone insert a field in an AW6 layout two objects are added to the layout:

the field itself and a string displaying the field's name.

Of course, the layout's creator may remove the string object.

From the different trials I made, it seems that

$002B opcode is used for fields themselves

while

$0028 is used for string displaying the field's name.
