Mark,
I know what you mean. I spend so much time, sometimes, tracking down a problem in my code that I just want to join the
army and charge up a hill screaming "Kill, kill, kill" until someone jumps up and shoots me in the shoulder
and the force of the shot spins me around and now I'm falling back down the hill flipping head over heals arms
outstretched trying to hold onto what little ground I can sliding further and further down the hill and then I have to
get up and charge back up the hill but this time my feet won't obey me and I'm just standing there trying to will my
legs to "Move damn it, move" but they won't move and I'm bleeding more from my shoulder and then the enemy
tops the rise and starts running down the hill shooting at me "tat tat taaat" but my legs are like rubber and
I'm stuck and panic starts to set in and then Carrot Top runs by me but he's not Carrot Top cause he's all like buffed
up and has huge muscles and he's like yelling at me "Feel the burn! Damn you! Feel the burn!" but wait, it is
Carrot Top and he really is all pumped up and buff and I'm like... Whooaaa WTF ... and then I wake up...
Well, that's what my nightmare was like, anyway.
Um? One wonders how a Sylvester Stallone wannabee ends up programming
with Livecode.
I say "Sylvester Stallone wannabee" because those of us who have been
shot at know that
it ain't like that at all.
But yeah, thanks for the numtochar() that works.
Thanks

I had that problem when I was bringing up the MakeBoard as well. I was
trying to send a decimal 192 to the board to initialize it. It took
more days than I care to admit to figure out that rev was sending a
three-character string to the device instead of a numeric 192 value. A
simple numtochar(192) took care of things, but tracking it down was a
nightmare.
