Has it always been this way? I am a newcomer to LiveCode. It is easy enough to save/set the hilitedLines when coming and going from another card but to have them highlighted automatically should in my opinion be the normal status and if you want them otherwise you script it. Thanks Terry On

What do you get in theRes when it works? CREATE shouldn't return any data. I always use revExecuteSQL for any SQL statement other than SELECT, although if revDataFromQuery works in the IDE it should work in the standalone. Pete lcSQL Software On May 23, 2014 11:33 PM, Dr. Hawkins

I wonder if the compiler is for some reason not including the sqlite driver. MIght look at the standalone settings and manually include the sqlite drivers and rebuild. Or put a try/catch around the revdatafromquery and see if you can get an error message out. On Sat, May 24, 2014 at 2:23 AM,

The coordinates of one screen are pretty straightforward, but if you're making the utility for other users, you'd do well to take into account multiple monitor setups, menu bars, task bars, etc. You could do something like put the working screenRects into theList which will place the dimensions

I don't know, I don't think I ever tried it in a non-toplevel stack. Does your modeless stack have more than one card that you navigate from/to? If the style of the window is a factor, that'd be good to know. On 5/24/2014, 3:48 PM, Peter Haworth wrote: I don't see this in my scrolling list
