In the odd cases where I've seen this happen (not your problem, but where the same code works in one stack but not another) my fallback strategy is to: clone the stack select the ENTIRE object's script, not just the function/command that is misbehaving, and paste it into a text editor. Delete the script from the object and Save. ie. the script of the object is now empty. If your text editor has the function 'Zap Gremlins' (or whatever it's equivalent is to remove non ASCII characters) use it. In 99% of my cases none are found and this is probably completely redundant but it's belts and braces to ensure only ASCII goes back. Copy and Paste the script back into it's object. Save your Stack again. This has worked for me on many occasions that it's just second nature now. Please don't take from that that I do this on a regular basis; in the early days of 8 & 9, maybe; I'm currently finding the latest LC9 very usable and haven't needed the above for a good 6-9 months. I think only once have I ever had to resort to applying the above to every script of the stack*; but fortunately I had available to me a very capable scripting language that was able to make very short work of exporting every script of every object into their own text file ;-) Once cleaned, and since Revolution 6.7 scriptLimits have been removed, it was also very easy to reset all the scripts of all the objects. It worked! As your case involves Globals you may need to 'clean' every script. *In reality it probably didn't need to be every script of the stack, there was probably some logical connection with the message path and the scripts involved; but time wise it was much quicker just to export every script than try to figure out the message path that may or may not involve 'the target', behaviour scripts, library scripts, send, etc etc. HTH _______________________________________________ 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
