I asked some detailed questions on this list six months ago, about apparent errors in the error string that catch gets, and inconsistencies between the documentation and the reality: http://lists.runrev.com/pipermail/use-revolution/2002-September/007691.html Unfortunately I never had any response. But my message did report some experimental findings, which anyone struggling in this area might find it useful to read. FWIW, although there are a lot of problems with this, it is possible with to use the data to get some clues about where the problem is. And in so far as Alex's problem was happening in the standalone, not the IDE, it's most likely to be one of two things: - a "do" statement exceeding the 'starter kit' limitation - a library or DLL which is not included in the standalone Hope this helps, Ben Rubinstein | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cognitive Applications Ltd | Phone: +44 (0)1273-821600 http://www.cogapp.com | Fax : +44 (0)1273-728866 _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
