Hi,

Is it possible to set the textcolor of the stack title in Windows builds?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Thanks to everyone for the helpful ideas. In the end, I did "rebuild" the card from the most recent backup copy of the livecode which still worked correctly. Not too much downtime connected with it. MWieder -- gosh, I've never used a space after the FLD and it's always worked OK for the field update...

Hi, Sparkout, Thanks for your reply. The script code "inside" the "on opencard" handler does not change the situation. Deleting the entire code, then using: on opencard put "This time it worked" & CR into fld"testlog" end opencard also fails to place the text in that field. It's like there is someth...

Hi, This one has me stumped. A stack's "on opencard" handler works fine in dev environment, but fails to execute in stand alone version. I've deleted the handler, rebuilt it, tried totally different code in a handler by that name -- all work fine while in livecode, but fail after stand alone is buil...

Mark & Klaus,

Thanks for the comments.

I already use the "shell" command to obtain the serial number but wondered if there was a "direct access" call to the system information via LiveCode.

Hi, Folks,

Other than using a shell command, is there a way to "get" the volume serial number from some system information source?

" the Volumes" returns the list of available volumes, but does not include volume serial numbers.

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Hi, all.

Just wondered if anyone had approached implementing the Swiss ephemeris in a LiveCode application.

Thanks for any comments.

Klaus & Ken From a "mouseUP" handler, the following single line of code works in WIndows XP to "kill" another running application: put shell("taskkill /im myApp.exe") into myresult The shell command needed the " /im " switch to finally work correctly. The application name may include uppercase chara...

Klaus & Ken -- many thanks for your reply.

Hi, All,

What is the correct code to kill another Windows application with a LiveCode handler?

Should this work?

on MouseUp
kill process "anotherApp.exe"
end MouseUP

Thanks,

The LiveCode "standardDeviation" returns a value based on "sample" methodology for the numbers list, rather than "entire population" method. For example, Excel allows for both "STDEV" and "STDEVP" calculations, and they produce significantly different results on relatively small lists of numbers. Is...

When placed at the end of the handler, this code will also accomplish the desired result:

select the last line of fld"my Data"

Robert,

Thanks for the information about "answer".

There are several "log comments" intended to provide tracking. The problem only seems to arise when the compiled standalone version is running -- not in development mode where debug could help.
