This is probably a simple thing. I created a stack that acts as a database. Each card is a record. In the development environment I can enter data and save the stack reliably.
Next I need to build it as a stand alone application that loads and saves its database. It only needs to work with a single set of data. My first attempts at this have not been successful. Can anyone describe how to set up saving and loading a simple database file from a standalone app? I've looked for clues in the transcript dictionary, the example project and this list. For testing I've added a save button with this script: on mouseUp set itemDel to "/" set the directory to item 1 to -2 of the fileName of this stack save this stack as "test.edb" end mouseUp I also have an Open button with this script: on mouseUp set itemDel to "/" set the directory to item 1 to -2 of the fileName of this stack toplevel "test.edb" end mouseUp These seem to work in the development environment but not when built as a stand-alone. I probably need a better understanding of substack usage (among other things), but any tips, clues would be most welcome - especially transcript examples and step-by-step descriptions of how to save/load stack data from a stand alone Rev app. Thanks, -Jamie (Currently running Rev 1.0 Starter Kit on NT.) _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
