In my Recipe stack, once I correct the basic error within the set script statement, click btn "one', and then I click on btn 'two' it does what it suppose to but if I open btn 'two's script and Apply I get a Compilation Error because 'y' was not declared. The real question is, how does sts know that there is a compilation error which stops it from setting the script, as experienced by you stating that your changes are NOT made, but sts doesn't have enough info to post you the error - which could be because part of the check also uses the result of setting the script but the result is empty so there is nothing to post? IMO this seems to be an Engine side problem, not an sts side problem. If the 'the result' of setting the script also caught Strict Compilation errors, then it would be easier to pass text in and out of scripts and pick up syntax errors. > > While we're talking about script errors, another pet peeve of mine is: > compilation stops after finding the first error.

If ALL syntax errors were reported the size of the Errors Tab would seem to be more sensible. Proceeding past the first error and continuing to check for more would seem to be a sensible enhancement request - it's how my TE works which is another thing I could add to my list of why I like my TE over the SE. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
