Oh, I've got a vast number of HyperCard stacks lolling around on the
hard drive of a G5 iMac (that runs 'Classic');
I'm not completely sure why?

sure, I'd be quite pissed if not! :-D
That works. Once you get the stack converted to LC you can open it in any
later version. I keep an old copy of LC around just for the initial import.

Seriously. But the good news is that it's not that much trouble to recreate
your stacks in Livecode, and frankly, given that Hypercard was card driven,
meaning if you wanted to display different data on a similar form you simply
created a new card and filled in the data, and given that Livecode
I am amazed that LiveCode has remained backward compatible as long as it
has.

Hi Klaus,
Yes, unfortunately this happens since LC 7 with some HC stacks.
Best,

Just curious, if you open with lc 5, and then save a copy as an lc stack,
can you then open it with the later version? (and do the usual "messages
off" thing too of course)
