Greetings,
I already use V4REV external in one application but recently thought I would try Rev's built in access for a new, simpler project. I want to access the Valentina db using just Rev's supplied commands but I can't even open a val db. I am using Rev enterprise 2.7.2 on OS X 10.3.9. The Val db is made for v2 of Valentina.

I have the simple:

on mouseup
  answer file "choose file"
put it into fname -------this looks like: /Users/ronbarber/Documents/Revolution Enterprise/2.7.2-gm-1/test.vdb
  put revOpenDatabase("Valentina","",fname,,,,"","",) into dbid
  put "select ref from book" into sqlword
  put revdatafromquery(,,dbid,sqlword) into thetext
end mouseup

I get the following for "dbid":

revdberr,invalid database type

Do I have to init Val or set the externals or is there a problem with the file name or...?

Thanks
Ron
