To Sean - This was sent on Saturday but found the bit bucket
Hi Sean, First I must say that I am relieved that you are ok - and didn't do whatyou hinted at. I also admit to being the perpetrator of the heinous crime of trying to help "one of us" in distress. But no, I didn't send the police. I did read your email to the end btw - we do care even if you think the world is against you at the moment! - If you don't have empathy then you are a Politician or a Psychopath. Before I start my lengthy stream of consciousness (ramblings?) please accept the invite because gofundme keep sending me emails and I do not have access to the money. Pride comes before a fall and respect isn't lost for one "failure" those who love and respect you do for the sum total of your life not the "failures" which can in many respects be out of our control. And paraphrasing Roosevelt ... "The man who never had something go wrong never did anything". "Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all." Dale Carnegie Please re-read what you said and tell me how I was to react to this how would I or your family have felt if "goodbye" really was goodbye and we had done nothing I am £1000's down and well out of pocket. I will never get it back. I have/will-have lost everything. I don't think I can come back from this. My life is worth £0, especially to you guys. I'm like abandon-ware. Your failure cost someone their life (not to mention his wife and two boys who may well miss him but will be better off without him for making the mistake of using LC and all things LC!). Now my life is over. Worst Day Ever! Miserable. Rained on and soaked through. Insurance doesn't cover for events like this and not one person at LC or on here will be able to help me out of this hole. I guess this is goodbye. I might not have bothered except for the first paragraph sounding so final. it didn't sound like "shit this is bad". We have all been faced with a situation that seemed hopless and i've got that t-shirt more times than I care to remember. TL;DNR -- Short version SHIT HAPPENS!!! but never give up. The worst was when I was in hospital ready to start chemotherapy and attached to a trolley having a blood transfusion and trying to finish off a program/demo (on my 386 windows 3.1 PC "kindly" brought in by my partner) . We were going up against some rather large companies for a demonstration to British Telecom the next day. I finished the program and in the end the program that won the contract, did so because it had a GUI (it was written in VB) - Mine was written in Turbo C with a dos windowing system and a multitasking kernel (it was a multline voice application with a built in mini Domain Specific Language I wrote). The fact that it would not be seen by ordinary mortals and would be in a "closet" just working it seems was secondary to the eye candy. When I got out of hospital I wrote a VB front end to it and got it installed into the biggest Opticians in the country - great I thought the big time. No such luck - they were bought out and my system was replaced by one of the big boys - to this day my system has stuff that none of the later systems have. O well. Get another system into a large telecommunications company - programmed to do what they wanted - we were vying against Digital Equipment corporation and IBM, - I won because I I could do it in 4 months (I did it in 3) and they said a year. It worked! They then gave me a new contract job to do, that saved them thousands - great I thought my meal ticket - No such luck they were bought out by Vodaphone and DEC got back in. I could go on. I created a system for a financial services company bought out by a bigger firm and my system was replaced by IBM. Did I give up no. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPb8tb3D6N0 There have been more before and since , there have been BUGS in Borland C, Foxpro, TAS, Clipper, VB, Delphi, UCSD Pascal, AlphaSoftware - but that's what you expect. I jettisoned everything and jumped in with LC - I checked out and paid for B4A/IJ Xojo and a few others but I have to say LC beats them all hands down but i keep them in reserve. Ive been using 6.7.11 for my applications until last week when the manufacturer of my equipment changed something in the firmware and the com/serial ports wouldn't working. I compiled it with LC9 and all works now - except it's 17MB file size instead of 7MB. Yes the IDE is slower, yes certain things don't work - but show me a language or program that doesn't have any bugs - here's one in basic - and I'm not sure if it is bug free. 10 END = To speak directly to LC I agree totally with Sean and Richmond and everybody else STOP ADDING NEW FEATURES GET THE STUFF FINISHED THAT Y

Re: Sean?
Folks, I second what Lagi posted. A donation may not only provide needed funds, but sends a message to Sean, and all on this list, that we are a community that care not only about the product we are creating, but the folks who are creating it. That message is sent, whether the donation is 5 or 100.

Re: Sean?
Hi Mark, Gofundme are very credible and trustworthy. I contacted them and they said I can change who the beneficiary is - to his spouse or other family member. So the correct people will get the money whatever the situation - God I hate having to think about the worst case. I thought the same when I set it up but the what the heck (words to that effect) I lose £100 so what - my family will still be OK. Everybody, if you can please give what you can afford now, not the minimum that will make you feel that you have done your bit. It will go to the correct people - this isn't PayPal who holds money on a whim.

Re: Sean Shao's Calendar Widget
It was released in to the public domain (full source) so you really shouldn't have to pay anything for it.. No idea about the wrapper though so you may incur a charge there.. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

Re: Sean Shao's Calendar Widget
Charles, The wrapper makes it easy to call the calendar widget with a single function call. Please check the dialogdata AFTER the dialog is dismissed, and put your biz logic there, not in the OK or any other button on the widget.

Sean Shao's Calendar Widget
Chipp's wrapper for Sean Shao's calendar widget is great! I was able to use it to call it and insert a date into a field. But I do have a question about using it in multiple fields. This is the script I am using in the OK button of the calendar widget: on mouseUp set the dialogdata to line 1 of fld "log" if dialogdata is not empty then put item 2 of dialogdata into t --->month put "/" after t put item 3 of dialogdata after t --->day put "/" after t put item 1 of dialogdata after t --->year put t into field "date1" of stack "mileage report" close this stack end if end mouseUp I tried using selectedField in my script in the OK button of the calendar widget above but that did not work: if selectedField of card "1" stack "mileage report" = field "date2" of card "1" of stack "mileage report" then put t into field "date2" of card "1" of stack "mileage report" else answer "It did not work!" end if Any suggestions on how I can resolved this dilemma?
