If the stack is in RAM then you should be able to reference the fields if you use a complete reference, like "fld x of cd y of stack z".

AND I've isolated my Send Email code and compiled as a standalone. THAT also works! I think I've isolated the issue to the fact that I am referencing a couple fields on a card in another stack that is open, but I may not be able to do that in a standalone. In the test standalone I put everything on one card.

Well with the time calculator I discovered I was calling another custom function in my timeCalc function which I had NOT included in the card script of the standalone. So that is solved. I have not been able to figure out the revMail problem though. I'll loook into that later.

Thanks for humoring me all. :-)

For the revmail issue, I put a simple revmail one line handler in
a button script in a new stack and compiled it as a standalone. In
the IDE it launches the Apple Mail program and fills in the fields
with whatever was in the arguments. In the standalone it does
nothing. It fails silently.

In the time calculator, another simple app, the only Livecode command
I call is the convert command. That also fails silently.

It sounds like the LC libs aren't being initialized. Do you have a preOpenbackground handler on the first card of your standalone? If so, try passing that message.

The silent fail is a an unfortunate IDE design decision, in which the error reporting dialog is not included by default. Add that (see the last pane of the Standalone Builder) and I'll be what you get is a "handler not found" error.
