Richard,

It is a graphical user system that uses 18 buttons to access 6,000 text items. I'll upload a version when it is working. Then you will see more of what it does.
The more I know the more I find I don't know. So a fresh start seems a good idea.


Thanks

Tom

Have you considered using a list for that selection so you don't have to make so many buttons?

I knew I could do this, but in SC it became so cumbersome and that memory is one part that kept me from attempting it again in Rev for so long. But I am ready now since I have a need to do it. I think the memory of taking this on again is what drove me to letting our Director guy handle it in the first place. I will post some samples once I start that part. The scripts will be all new using Rev's more powerful features and the biggest part will be not falling into my old thinking which was based on the 'limitations' in SC. Therefore, I am not going back and reading 'any' of my old scripts but rather forcing myself to start fresh and find new better ways.

The older I get, the more I throw code away. I used to think code was important, but much of the time what I've learned since I wrote it is really more valuable.


Starting from scratch can be very refreshing. With my products I tend to use major upgrades as an opportunity for a complete rewrite...
