dzervas, Just a thought... The Windows environment has to be so heavily protected because of attack. Everything gets locked down with Fire Wall and protection packages. I know on our Corporate boxes we use Symantec End Point protection, and we cannot even map drives between machines without disablin...

Paul,

If you are opening the .rev file (not a stand-alone .exe) and it looks like that, it could be that your file got so hammered/corrupted that it is toast. That would be the only explaination I can think of.

Paul, My bad, open with WordPad (it formats the text better to read). Attached is a jpg snapshot example of a mouseup routine found in one of my stacks (the .rev file) and viewed in WordPad. I just start copying at the "on mouseup", and quit at the "end mouseup". Some stacks will obviously have a lo...

In Windows (which I use primarily because that is what our Corporation uses), I just right click the stack file and choose Open With Notepad. Using the "Open With", ignores the extension (although I suppose you could just change it to .txt and do the same thing). If on a MAC (I am a MAC guy at heart...

I can paste that same data into a text file, recopy it and it will then paste into ...

I take that "That would be bad news", means there is no backup of the stack file (been there). I figure you probably tried to open it with the old 3.5 version and it does the same thing, but had to ask. Don't know of anything specific to recover the stack in whole, but I do know you can open a stack...

Hello All, I am new to the forum, but started with Hypercard a long long time ago (back in the se/si days) and converted to Rev when it 1st came out (so I am an old guy). My Rev development (Enterprise) is for work purposes in the forensics and eDiscovery environment. Now that I have introduced myse...
