Folks, Thanks to Mike, Michael, Jerry & Peter for all the useful feedback.
I’m keen to try some of these ideas but unfortunately my project file has now become unstable in ‘run’ mode when I try to access the card containing the key scripted bits! :-( (And of course, this issue has also identified problems with my Time Machine backup setup, as I can’t enter Time Machine due inconsistencies with my MacBook Air’s SSD.) I’ve emailed the project to supp...@livecode.com and I’m hoping they can identify what has gone awry and recover the project. Ho hum - such is life.
