Posts: 3              I moved to another MAC (same OS etc..). I reinstalled 
RealBasic v3 and copied my files over.

Without changing anything, I immediately now have two problems that might be 
related.

The first, upon opening my project file I get a list of the same error: 
"control uses a deprecated superclass"  I have no idea what this is and how it 
occurred since the simple textboxes which it's referring too is straight off 
the Built-In controls.

If I check off these/repair, and then simply try and compile/run (from within 
realbasic environment), I get an error: "Type Mismatch error. Expected 
EditField, but got runtimeprompts.valueText" - File: Office (whatever that is) 
- Location: runtimeprompts.setprompts

So I'm thoroughly confused with why now the errors, what they actually mean and 
in the final case, gives me no information on what or where to look...

Has anyone seen this before or can suggest my next step because I am now 
completely stuck.

Thank you,
Martin

Location: Hamburg, Germany              Starting with RB 2009r3, EditFields are 
deprecated, but you can still use them; that would be the simplest short-term 
solution (i.e. go back to the previous version of your project and this time 
don’t let RB repair anything). Otherwise you would have to use the search 
command to find out where your code is still expecting an EditField. Or you 
might go back to 2009r2.1 for the time being (another short-term solution).

AFAIK, there are no controls known as textboxes or simple textboxes. There are 
EditFields (deprecated) andTextAreas and TextFields.
My guess is that you are using an EditField -- no need to accept RB's helpful 
suggestion to repair. I bet if you decline, the problem will disappear.

Posts: 3              yes - you are both correct. Not sure why I didn't tried 
not accepting the suggested change  - looked very fatal if I didn't.

It all works now I have ignored the "helpful" resolution.

Thank you so much,
Martin.
