Hi all,
I have an extremely weird crash situation.
I created a stack that is ultra simple (just a stack script supposed to
run at launch after the stack is compiled for windows.).
If i compile the stack, the IDE crashes and the stack is no longuer
openeable. If i open it the IDE just crashes.
Hi Sarah,
Is it possible that the address with the apostrophe is in unicode?

Hi Jeff,
You can develop the stack in Rev 2.8 and save it in 2.4 levacy format
before opening it in Rev 2.6. You might have to make adjustments in
Rev 2.6, because some newer features are not available in older
versions.

Dear Bernard,

We are fully committed to the path outlined for the 2.7.5/2.8.1/2.9

I've looked at the bug you are referring to, and see that it has been

Just to say at this stage that I find this whole effort most welcome.
Of course, despite Ken's caveats, we must all be itching to suggest
additions to the library (file handling, tables and printing would be
on my list). I can see that the group has to think very carefully
