Am I missing something obvious here? Questions: * What happens when you click on the launcher stack? Does it disappear and then nothing happens? * Is "admin" the name of the main stack that is stored in your app.rev stack file in memory? To start troubleshooting this you can add a breakpoint to the glxapp_openApplication handler in the application stack script. This is the handler that opens the stack targeted by kProgramStackName. When you get to the breakpoint you can refresh the list of stacks in the Application Browser (little refresh button at the bottom of the left column in the Application Browser) and verify that you have a stack in memory whose name matches the value of kProgramStackName. If you aren't familiar with using the debugger then you could add the following line to the glxapp_openApplication handler: answer there is a stack kProgramStackName > What are these GLX .dat stack files all about, anyway? This lesson explains what each .dat file does. http://revolution.screenstepslive.com/spaces/revolution/manuals/glxapp/lessons/5545-Understanding-How-The-Framework-Is-Designed -- Trevor DeVore Blue Mango Learning Systems ScreenSteps: http://www.screensteps.com LiveCode Resources for Developers: http://livecode.bluemangolearning.com _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
