Bonjour Francis,
You might want to read the tutorial of HyperActive that is devoted to translating stack from HyperCard to Revolution.
I used it and saved time thank to this tutorial.

Hi from Paris,

I will be without Classic on my new iMac G5, so I took the much delayed plunge, and in one day, converted my many HC stacks to Revolution (2.6.1 Build 152). Things seemed to work quite well, although I will have to modify many of my scripts, as I leaned heavily on external XCMDs and XFCNs (many thanks to Mr. Rinaldi et alia). I will end up rebuilding them all entirely, simply because Rev stacks can be so much more "jazzy" to look at. But, until then, I want to clean up the scripts a little, so that the stacks execute to some degree of efficiency.

However, a few problems are bugging me and I don't know how or why they occur. When I open a HC converted stack, Examples :

1 - When I select a field or button with the pointer tool, the "up", "down", "left" and "right" arrows on the keybord don't work any more. I can't move my fields/buttons step by step.

2 - I get strange errors flagged, such as "Repeat: error in statement" for a script command" "repeat forever", and "Handler: error in statement" for a script command "go to card 1". I can find NO errors in my scripts.

Can anybody shed any light on either of these problems ? Are there any important "Do's" and "Don'ts" for those converting stacks from HC ?
