Hi Steve,
A few of things for you to try:
1. Forget the path stuff and just let the app put the file in the default folder. In the IDE this will be the Revolution folder, but in a standalone, it will be the standalone's folder.
2. Make sure you have the answer dialog as part of your standalone, then put answer commands everywhere so you can find out exactly which line is causing the problem.
3. Get it to tell you the contents of field "generic" before writing to the file - maybe it can't find the field.
4. When building the standalone, turn on the bug reporting and set it to send an email on error. When an error occurs, it will throw up a dialog asking if you want to send an error report. Click yes and then read the error in the email that is created - you don't actually have to send it.
HTH, Sarah
