I am not a professional programmer but had worked with Hypercard from
its inception, and went over to Revolution as soon as I became aware of
its existence.
I have been able to convert most of my stacks flawlessly, with one
exception. In the late 1990s I produced a stack for a research
I would recommend doing some sort of audit trail on the two versions,
such as
Version running in Hypercard:
repeat with x = 1 to the number of cards
go card x
put the short id of this card ^ the name of this card cr
after masterList
end repeat
put the number of lines in
Hi Richard,
According to the documentation, the number of cards in a Revolution stack is
only limited by the amount of available memory. I can imagine that a stack with
119000 cards becomes rather big once converted to Revolution. Perhaps it indeed
doesn't fit in memory. It is also possible
Sorry for messing up the link in my previous post.

I'd like to emulate the behavior of some software which allows you to draw
rough shapes by hand and recognises whether you want to draw a circle,
triangle, rectangle etc. The tools would allow you to use the freehand pen
polygon tool to sketch and then replace the sketch with an appropriately
Richard,
We've done a lot of large HC to Rev conversions and have run into the
same problem.
1. Make sure the original HC stack has been compacted, several times
2. Strip all NULLs before import. These can get into the data if a
user has pasted text into the HC fields from Word or some other
Of course, everything everyone is recommending is against a copy of the
original stack. Make a copy, try something, like a compact, and then save that
copy. Then use that copy and do a second compact, save that copy, etc. When
doing this kind of recover I normally keep a log of the versions and
Yes, the missing algorithm.

Hi,
wait 0 secs really should be wait 0 secs with messages to have the effect
you want.
Stripping the NULLs is an interesting idea, but there is no way to do this
inside of HC as far as I know and removing _ALL_ NULLs might break the stack.

Yes, Mark,
wait 0 secs with messages is better.
The NULL Hypothesis is a bit strange but we have encountered many
problems (data disappearing, sorts not working right, filters
filtering too much) all of which were fixed by striping NULLs from
the data before performing the action. Now it is

The set-cookie header is not coming thru. Try loosing the path part, it
might be confusing the browser.

Gregory,
The POST operation is not setting the cookie. As you can see here:

Thank you for suggestions but I am still having trouble.
I have a Stack that has thirty Cards containing multiple choice questions. On
Four of these thirty Cards I have a Field named Results that contains the
users answers for each section. On each of the four Cards that has the field
