My suggestion would be start over, and use Jacque's MetaCard Setup plugin for LiveCode to create your MC installation. You can find it in the Files area of the Yahoo group - make sure you download metacard_setup201.rev.zip. After you install her plugin, you can launch LiveCode and select Metacard Setup from the Plugins menu in the LC IDE. A few button clicks and you'll have a fully working verson of MetaCard with the latest IDE. Ken Ray Sons of Thunder Software, Inc.

Coming back to MC
Hello anyone who is out there, my name is Brian and I am a music teacher from Illinois. In about 1993 I began a project with Hypercard to help young students read music notation. It worked pretty well, but eventually I moved on to teach high school and then college, and I didn't have much need for the stack. I did port the project to MetaCard before I stopped working on it...gosh that must have been 10 years ago I bet. Anyway, I started thinking about bringing the stack up to date and started researching the whereabouts of MC, and I found this group. I see that IDE 4.1 is available (I have downloaded it), but I'm not quite sure how to proceed as far as getting this together with LiveCode 5.0. Is MC compatible with 5.0, and if so can I just follow the pdf installation instructions that exist for version LIveCode 4.5? Many thanks for any advice.

Yes, that should work… if it doesn't, post to the list again and we'll figure it out. *Ken Ray *Sons of Thunder Software, Inc.
