Richard --

I don't have and IDE for Windows. I develop on a Mac Mini M1. Only my Windows 10 exe is failing.

How do I get the IDE for Windows ?
Can I sneaker net the Mac " dot livecode file from the Mac to the laptop ?

Hi Klaus, See above, we cannot tell you without konwing what is in your filepath in the end!? 1 - What should be in the file path at the end of that script snippet is "albumName/mp3Filepath . txt" which for i = 1 in my music album list is "Achtung! Hier Spielt Anton Karas". That txt file then gives ...

Thanks to Klaus and Axworld for their replies, especially helpful on the code marking suggestion. 1 - Files being read were created by this program and saved as UTF-8 -- that was part of my cross platform trying to save umlauts and other accent marks.

Program is to play musical tracks recorded on reel tape in the 1950s, and 60s. Converted to cassettes 2 sides 30 minutes ...

A program that worked for 6 months developed in Mac, then compiled into Windows worked for 6 months. Now the message path works in Mac but fails in Windows. Specifically, a read function, in main stack script, called from many locations does not work. Calls in the stack script work, calls from below...
