Re: Problems using Dreamcard

[Jim Lyons]

In earlier messages of this thread, I described the problems I had when 
I just copied the Dreamcard application out of my Rev 2.5 folder onto a 
CD with a stack and copied them to a friend's Mac. Thanks to help from 
the list, I found the problems were caused by not "installing" 
Dreamcard and the resources it needs to work. When I downloaded and 
installed the trial version of Rev 2.5 to my friend's machine and 
opened the stack with the included player, the earlier problems were 
gone.

So I left the stack (a membership directory) with my friend to work on 
using her newly installed Dreamcard player. Besides problems printing 
(subject for another thread), in turns out that my Save command was not 
actually working! She put in quite a bit of work before realizing this, 
unfortunately. Of course, I had tested saving with my menu command, but 
running in the IDE. Now that I test it with my Dreamcard player, I 
discover it doesn't work.

My menu command is:  save stack "Directory" as the filename of this 
stack

Again, this functions correctly in the IDE, but not under Dreamcard. 
Could "this stack" be different in the player? That would be a rude 
shock. Am I making bad assumptions about using the player? And I ask 
again, are there any rules, tips, warnings, guidelines, for designing 
stacks to be used with Dreamcard anywhere? Thanks for any help.
