RG> What does that mean? By what user actions? here is a recipe: 1- create a stack 2- put an image in the stack 2- in a preOpenStack handler or an openCard handler or a startup handler, within the stack script or the card script put a handler like this: on preopenStack select img 1 export jpeg to file "copiedpicture.jpg" answer "OpenCard handler says: I copied to you hard disk a picture named copiedpicture.jpg... look for it" end preOpenStack on openCard select img 1 export jpeg to file "copiedpicture.jpg" answer "OpenCard handler says: I copied to you hard disk a picture named copiedpicture.jpg... look for it" end openCard on startup select img 1 export jpeg to file "copiedpicture.jpg" answer "StartUp handler says: I copied to you hard disk a picture named copiedpicture.jpg... look for it" end startup Save the stack. 4- Now, drag and drop this stack over an executable. (Not double click on the stack) In Windows, in many executables downloaded from this mail list, i read the warning: I copied to you hard disk a picture named copiedpicture.jpg... look for it Think that instead an image, you could copy an *.exe from a custom property and being able to run it.

If my memory does not fail, this AT>> was possible using a preOpenstack handler... Read this message thread: <http://lists.runrev.com/pipermail/use-revolution/2005-January/049846.html> RG> While this is an interesting issue, I couldn't find RG> where in that bug report it mentions saving files RG> to disk while secureMode is turned on. RG> What did I overlook? i read the title of the message "best anti-viral program for Revolution" and thought that the possibility of copying a file without user intervention is a gate for virus-like activity. By default, the engine does not load in "securemode". in my understanding, "securemode" is a global property like "selectgroupedcontrols" with the difference that after being set to true, it could not be changed back to false. In Dreamcard, i'm sure, it's set at startup from the preferences stack. Securemode limits a lot. Look at this message from december last year. <http://lists.runrev.com/pipermail/use-revolution/2004-December/048611.html> No one answer, so then i believed that i was the only one using securemode... This was my question then: ----------------------------------- How many of you had used the secure mode? When a RR player or standalone is using the securemode a stack could not write a text file to disk or change the registry (all these restrictions are fine), but when i try to put text in the clipboard, to paste in another document the clipboard is always empty!?!?!?. I've tried this code, and many variations without success: set the clipboarddata to localVariableZXC I'll like to be wrong about this, and that even in secure mode, i could put data on the clipboard to paste in a text editor, like Wordpad, but in my side this is not possible or maybe i'm using the wrong code. Could you test this on your side? ---------------------------------------- Will you test this on your side? Are you able to put data in the clipboard while secureMode is set to true?
