Maybe you could indeed find the time to look at the Topsearch tool, to see how the structures compare (although as I said it is now obsoleteat least for searching the Docs because of your add-ons). There remains the question, which I raised, whether it would be useful to add a *general text search utility* to the environment that works in a similar way as in Topsearch and in your search tools - not intended for the Documentation, but to search text contents of any stacks in visible and hidden fields and also - as an option - in all scripts of a stack. The features could be similar to our present solutions: - search routine that lists the portions of the text containing the searchstring and thus providing a condensed version of the parts of the text relevant to the search - colorizing the searchstring in the found text for better visibility - providing the address of the found texts (field,card,script) to be able to directly go the card containing the field or open the script editor.

Howdy, I asked before but got no reply, so I thought Maybe if I spice up the thread handle... How can I operate special controllers, particularly joysticks, in Rev? That is, can I get control of the game controller drivers from Rev, or make one in Rev. Cross-platform would be cool, but I usually develop on a Mac. I have a Macally flight stick and a very nice CH Fighterstick (will work on either machine) to work with. Two big reasons: 1) Some of the folks I develop for may be able to use a joystick, but not other controllers nor keyboard. 2) My CTS is much worse (even using the trackball hurts), and I can't get surgery at this time, so I need to use a joystick myself.

Rev and XML
Looking at treeView.rev it looks as though a stack can be traversed and rendered into an XML tree. Using vers. 2.01 this sample stack also seems to be faulty - when loaded it has a default xml document that is located in drive S:\, clicking on the top right button marked with a question mark does not do anything (I was expecting some instructions), and clicking on any of the stacks produces an error (xml err, bad document id). I even had a look through the script in the stack but could not find anything that sugggested its purpose. In fact, it looks like it was written by another company (the Attainment Company) and included with Rev without proper integration or clarification. (I'm not moaning - I'm imagining what someone reviewing Rev 2.01 might say!) These problems aside: am I right in thinking that a stack can now be converted into XML? How far does this conversion go? (I tested it and the contents of fields are converted, and button design elements e.g. location are converted, but scripts seem to not be converted. Could a stack be written as XML and then transformed using XSL into a Rev stack? Is there some overview explanation of the purpose of XML in relation to Rev? I've searched the docs and all I found was references to each specific 'revXML...' command. A Google search of this list for xmltree-view did not provide anything useful either.

Re: Report Object - but where's the columnar report
HyperCard, at $99, had better built-in reporting a decade ago than the $1000 edition of Revolution has today! Add Reports to HyperCard and you have the best report marker on the market - still for about half the price of Revolution. You are correct in observing that no other XCard has good reporting. I think this may be one reason why so many people continue to use databases - which are harder to use for complex jobs and far less flexible than using Revolution or SuperCard. I suppose the majority of Rev users do not need sophisticated reporting capabilities - those that do have not come to Revolution. The key difference between HyperCard's built-in reports and Reports is this: with HyperCard a programmer could create almost anything, with Reports the user could create and/or modifiy anything (without even knowing HyperTalk). When we shipped our first system to New Zealand the language and the paper and business conventions required changes to almost every report in the system. The user made all of those changes, enjoyed doing it, and went on to create about 40 more special reports to handle some of their unique needs. You will note that Reports always sold for more than HyperCard. This is reasonable. For most businesses powerful reporting is more important than easy scripting. A really good reporting engine (with a free runtime and the ability to read SQL databases as well as Revolution stacks) would easily be worth the $1000 price of Revolution.

Re: Is revShowPrintDialog Working Yet?
Thanks for the reply Sarah. The script I'm using is as follows: on mouseUp if field FileContents is empty then exit to top revShowPrintDialog false, the hilite of button PrintDialog revPrintField (field quote FileContents quote) end mouseUp I'm not sure why the Print dialog box never comes up. The revPrintField command works just fine, but I was trying to get the dialog to come up so the users had a chance to change printers or settings if they wanted to. Maybe it's a Windows thing? I may try the answer printer option if this doesn't work out... joe. Message: 3 Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2003 14:29:29 +1000 From: Sarah [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Is revShowPrintDialog Working Yet? To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Joe, I haven't had any trouble with this command but as I use Macs, I was waiting to see if any Windows guru had any advice for you. Since no-one else has jumped in, I'll give it a go :-) revShowPrintDialog only works if it is a handler WITH either revPrintText or revPrintField. It actually just set the flags so that these commands open the print dialogs when they run later in the handler. If you want a generalized way of getting to the system's printer settings, use answer printer.
