Dear Dalyoung,

I guess you are typesetting the wrong file, or you have put the last code I 
sent into a file which contains something of the previous codes…
Indeed in the last file I sent (which I am sending again at the end of this 
reply) does not contain the command \myanswer… which appears in your error 
message.

Please test the code below and let me know if you encunter a problem.

Re: [NTG-context] Clickable question/answer numbers (Otared Kavian)

[Jeong Dal]

Dear Otared,

Hi,
I run the given  code and got an error message as following.

tex error   > tex error on line 1 in file virtual://block.answer.2: ! 
Undefined control sequence

l.1 \myanswer
   [Q:test]



Would you please tell me how to avoid such an error?
It seems to me that you don’t have an error.

I am running minimal(beta) in OSX.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Dalyoung___
