Re: snapshot problem 1
Think of it just like first card, last card, last field, last button Assuming you do not change the layer order, you newest image will always be the highest layer number. If there is an image on the card, then there is a first and last image. If there is one image on a card, the first and last image is the same. So you could also use set the name of the last image to Secret Handshake set the name of the top image to Secret Handshake set the name of image (the number of images) to Secret Handshake or follow this logic set the layer of the last image to 1 -- becomes first image set the layer of the first image to top -- becomes last image set the layer of the top image to bottom -- becomes first image You can see this in the Tools:Application Browser Hope this helps Jim Ault On 12/4/08 8:38 AM, Thomas McGrath III [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: When you import a snapshot - How do you get the name of the newly created image that the snapshot is placed in?

Re: Sqlite remotely
I'm sorry. I'm just trying to figure out what you mean by remotely. I used to use SQLite but it is only single-user and not very fast so I switched to Valentina which is amazingly fast (you can call stuff from a large database and it fills out your fields instantly). Valentina is also multi-user so you can have the database on a remote server and call it from another computer. You can also use MySQL similarly of course but it is much slower.

I'm looking for some short term work (2 weeks - 2 months) doing Revolution programming. I don't care how laborious the work might be. Is there somewhere on the web one can go to search for contract work opportunities that fit this bill? If anyone here has a need for extra programming help of this nature, please email me directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've got some time on my hands I'd like to fill. Thanks.

Re: Is it possible to see what called command?
Bonsoir William, Le 4 déc. 08 à 19:43, william humphrey a écrit : If you have an error that is called by a command is it possible to see in the error some more information like what command immediately preceded it? If a function returns directly an error, you can test the result when calling a command. In addition the executionContexts function (undocumented) might help you.

Re: Is it possible to see what called command?
If you have an error that is called by a command is it possible to see in the error some more information like what command immediately preceded it? Yes - although it is currently unsupported, you can ask for the executionContexts and get a series of lines that indicate the call stack of the messages. Ken Ray Sons of Thunder Software, Inc.

Re: Sqlite remotely
sqlite is is a sql database but it is not a multi-user database. Think of it as a local file on your hard drive (in fact that is what it is). If you want to use it remotely, you have to mount that hard drive remotely, open the sqlite file, and then read and write to it. While you are doing that, no one else can. If you want multiple people to read and write from the same sqlite database file, you will need to build an app that accepts requests from remote users and it and only it opens and reads and writes to that data file. That connecter server is not a standard part of sqlite. You would have to build it yourself. sqlite is great for applications that need local data storage. For example, most (if not all) of the Apple apps running on a Mac store all their data in sqlite data files. It's not a multi-user database.

Re: fileType creator
Hi Mark, Thanks for the info! It works good. I read the dictionary quite a few times and either it does not explain to use it before opening the file or I missed it. They should probably make it clear where to use it. The only other problem is after changing the file type it does not automatically change the file to display the Rev ICON but that is not a serious issue. -=JB=- On Dec 4, 2008, at 2:55 PM, Mark Schonewille wrote: Hi JB, Set the filetype before opening the file.

Re: fileType creator
Thanks Ken. It works when I set it *before* the open file command. As for the file type it was good of you to mention that but I wanted it to be a Rev stack due to I was transferring a Rev stack with a communications program I wrote and I wanted to save it properly after it is transferred. -=JB=- On Dec 4, 2008, at 4:10 PM, Ken Ray wrote: On 12/4/08 3:15 PM, -= JB =- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am creating a new file using the open file command.

Re: variable storage
Scott, thanks. seems a little complicated because I wanted to do this with dozens of objects. So this would mean dozens of stacks. For my needs I think it might be better to store them all in one separate stack.

Re: variable storage
Mark, Yes except that the properties does not store ALL of the possible properties of an object. So it is not a perfect match to the original object.
