Sorry Jody, I thought that renaming the constants solved the issue. It did not...
I thought maybe the issue was the xlif file damaged in same manner, so I recreated the file from scratch (using 4Dpop), with no copy paste. I also recreated, no copy paste, the previously posted method wrapping Set Menu. These did not resolve the problem, and as part of testing I found other issues with my Konstants (see below). SO.. just to be sure, I empty the (4D) trash, compacted, and repaired the structure -- no problems indicated or repaired. Also, compacting and repair did not solve the problem... What I am seeing is some Konstants work, others do not. ex: I have 2 Konstants (in 2 different xlif files) Combo_Clear : Value= "Clear" Option_Clear : Value= "Clear" When I reference Option_Clear I get an error of mis-matched typing, if I replace with Combo_Clear the code does not complain. ($Action # Option_Clear) vs ($Action # Combo_Clear) In the debugger, Option_Clear = "Clear", Combo_Clear = "Clear", in 4DPop editor Option_Clear is specified as string, it was initially auto so I tried specifying the type. Am I not allowed to have 2 differently named Konstants with the same value, in 2 different xlif files??? I am in the process of removing a lot of IP vars that I was using as konstants, I do not know how to proceed at this point... continue replacing IPvars, and hope I can resolve the constants issue, or stop and replace the IPvars already exchanged for Konstants.
