Thanks Jim, Since you aren’t having the problem I tried a couple of other things. First, I had been dragging the file to the Livecode icon in the dock, so I tried opening it through the menu as you had done but I still get a file is not a stack message. I then shut my whole system down and tried everything again with the same result. So, it’s a bit mysterious.
