Yeah, I saw/see those pages. I dug around in the wiki for a while, but it seems 
to only include “New” or “Modified” commands. I was just looking for a listing 
of commands and their descriptions. The link to the ALP 9 docs takes me to a 
“this folder doesn’t exist!” page. I sleuthed my way through that URL and found 
a link to 
https://www.e-node.net/ftp/AreaListPro/AreaListPro_v10_Manual_URL.webloc, but 
that just loops me back to the original “documentation” page. The pages appear 
to be in need of some attention.

I downloaded both the ALP64 10.3.zip and ALP 10.3.zip files and neither 
included documentation that I could find. 

Another developer sent me the v9 docs PDF just now so I’ve got everything I 
need.

That was it! It turned out that the code was generic and assumed a valid ALP 
area reference existed, which in one form didn’t.

As you can probably tell, ALP is not a tool I have much experience with. It’s 
used extensively in the app I’m now supporting, so I need to get to a certain 
level of skill with it. 

Thanks again!

Tom
