Hi everyone I am new to lingo-l and would really appreciate it if anyone can help with a couple of problems. 1. Is it possible to pause sound files which are being streamed directly from the hard drive? if so how? I can pause playback but only restart playing from the beginning of the file. 2. I need to know how to set up a data entry screen that contains fields that automatically calculate values based on data entered into other fields... much the same as would be done with a spreadsheet. Having got all the data onscreen it needs to be entered into a list with the following structure: mainlist = [#main:[#sub1:[#sub1items:[#item1:"",#item2:"",#item3],#sub1items2:[#item1:" ",#item2:"",#item3],#sub1items2:[#item1:"",#item2:"",#item3:""]],#sub2:[#sub 1items:[#item1:"",#item2:"",#item3],#sub1items2:[#item1:"",#item2:"",#item3] ,#sub1items2:[#item1:"",#item2:"",#item3:""]]]] Can anyone out there help? Hope I'm not asking too much and thanks in advance for any help offered.
