I just looked back in dictionaries for older version back to 6.7.11 and there are no shift operators in the dictionary. You have bitAnd, bitOr, bitXor and botNot, but no shifts operators. Are you sure there were ever in the language to begin with? _______________________________________________ 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
