This is a project I haven’t worked on for awhile. LiveCode 9.0 produces the same error message. I’ve tried it when setting it to detect inclusions, but there is the same error. Is there any reason the error dialog couldn’t specify which module it can’t load? I am assuming it is wanting some

Re: Negative Numbers and NumberFormat

I am curious why folks use numberFormat vs the format function (which is much more consistent and versatile). Is the issue the complexity of the formatting strings for the format function? put format("$%0.2f",tMoney) into msg for tMoney = 5.55, you get $5.55 for tMoney = 5.3, you get $5.33

Richard, these are hard words. 1) The diff is announced _loudly_ in the dict. 2) setting the paintcompression to RLE can speed up significantly in most cases. More than 16GB of RAM and huge GPUs are not from the time when this was introduced (when you was a young boy with curly hair). They

I was mainly referring to the fact that an lc server script isn't restricted to a single script file, so scope still matters. (Clarity is not my strong suit) So as in a standalone etc, to use a global one would need to declare it in each script where it needs to be available, whether server or
