Hi Jacque,
I did not think of that :-(
As for me, I never ported any stack from HC to Rev (and I wrote
hundreds): I used too many externals.
I take the opportunity to tell to all "newcomers" how they would
benefit from all powerful Rev features by trying to re-write their
stacks with Rev instead of porting them :-)

Hi Timothy,
Obviously you are coming from HyperCard...
With Rev there are no "bg" fields (neither card fields) but only
fields.
Check the topics section in the docs named "Groups and Backgrounds"
It might help you to understand how Rev handles "bgs"... which do
not exist with Rev ;-)
Sometimes that is true, but Tim's stacks are HyperCard ports and
they have the HCAddressing set to true. That means it acts like HC
and there are background fields and card fields, as well as bg
buttons and card buttons. All HC imports act this way unless you
change it.
One reason the "find" command may not be working is if the script
is refering to a bg group that isn't placed on the current card.
Tim: the best thing to do is check "the result" after using the
find command and see what it says. The cause of the error should be
in there. I've used "mark cards by finding" a lot without any
problem, so there is something else going on.
