Re: Open Process Shell
mweider Thanks for the information. This is for my own system. Mostly just creating backup archives, but there are a few files that I want to password protect. I request the password from the user and then generate the bash script or pass it with the shell command. So at some time the password would...

Re: Best way to include stack1 in another stack (DatePicker)
Thanks to all.
The information from AxWald was the final piece to make this work.
After I get things cleaned up I will post the code. It may be helpful to others.
DtPicker is a calendar Date Picker Example
I forgot how much fun it is to be a "Newbe"

Re: Best way to include stack1 in another stack
Hi Used two stacks to develop the calendar and interface. From previous platforms I have used I have been able to import things like this and assumed that to be the case with LiveCode. Appears I was wrong. Can something like this be put in a library and be reused? If so can you point me to some plac...

Re: Best way to include stack1 in another stack
Craig Thanks for the example. That is not exactly what I am trying to do. I guess my original question was not clear. I have built a calendar using a DataGrid to use as a date picker. At this time I have a main stack and a subStack with the calendar on the subStack. I know I could rename this and co...

Best way to include stack1 in another stack
Hello Need some help with including separate stacks and cards in a new stack. For example I have a stack that creates a calendar that picks the day that was clicked on, (in a data grid). That I want to use in another stack as a picker. Tried "start using stack" but could not make that work also trie...

Re: MatchChunk is true but positionVarsList is empty
Thierry,
Thanks for the example I see the mistake I made.
Sure would be nice if the dictionary had examples like this.

Re: answer file with type
A little more effort and I find that prompt and titled are mutually exclusive.

Re: answer file with type
Thanks Klaus
That works except that on my Linux the prompt doesn't show but the title does. On windows the prompt shows, but the title does not show.
Will explore that a little further sometime.

Re: read from file (field "Datafile") at -100 for charsToRead
jacque,
Thanks for the insight about "read from file (field "Datafile") at -100 for charsToRead" in the dictionary.
Not sure I would ever have figured that out, but it does make sense.
Your example should be put in the dictionary as it is much clearer than what it currently there.

Re: read from file (field "Datafile") at -100 for charsToRead
Thanks to all for the thoughts about this. I have two things in mind: 1- The dictionary shows an example of reading from a field as if the field was a file. I think tat is an interesting concept and have tried to make it work, but have not been successful with that. 2- I am trying to determine the b...
