As I've mentioned in the past, at my company, we didn't come to Rev with a Hypercard background, and frankly, we don't use the "card" process very much. Our applications may have one or two cards in total, probably just due to the way we think about scripting and application construction. But we do store lots of info in the way Richard is describing, and then populate a single card with that info on demand. I'm not sure it is the right way, or the best way, but it sure works better for us than managing a ton of cards (which I can't get my head around.) -- Troy RPSystems, Ltd. www.rpsystems.net _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
