Re: Message Box appears
put the scaledScore[memoryforstories] of field data1 into msg Has got me before now! They can be so hard to find when you are writing lots of stuff to the message box for debugging, and then forget to delete just one of them! This is especially true in a library stack, I had a rouge put xxx in a library that took me ages to track down, I eventually found it in a in function a few levels away from the main API Call! I think an option that turned off the put xxx shortcut would be a good idea!

Re: Message Box appears
Me too... Thinking aloud, as it were, would a handler like this work? on checkScript pScript repeat for each line L in pScript add 1 to lineCount if put is in L AND into is not in L then put lineCount comma after possibleProblems end repeat put possibleProblems end checkScript I guess we'd need to consider into msg and into message etc... as well as before, after and so on... If we had a completely reliable version, we could even have it comment out those lines. Or has anyone already done this?

Re: Message Box appears
Hi, Well, I was thinking leave the explicit forms as they are as at least you can do a global find on msg or messagebox, but you can't search for the shorthand version without hitting every put in the whole stack(s).

Check the archives, but I think the Altuit site has changed so much that old info will be obsolete. Perhaps Chipp may know where it is hiding. PS I always use 'into msg' or 'after msg' so I can find them later. For a short time I always added !! like put fld output !! but got out of the habbit. Of course another way is to make your own lib handler putMsg flag upperTier is fUpperTier on putMsg txtStr put txtStr end putMsg then turn off the 'put txtStr' line or find the putMsg lines Jim Ault Las Vegas ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: Message Box appears
Hi Jim and all, IMHO, you guys are making it too hard. I've intentionally developed a habit of always putting test info ' cr after msg'. Then when I'm done, I can easily find all occurrences of 'after msg' and delete'em. No, it's not infallible. And sometimes I cheat (like to clear msg at the start of a 'put after' sequence). But I make my living writing software with Revolution, and I don't have any self-inflicted misery from rogue 'puts'. To me that says something about the effectiveness of the approach. I admit that the 'habit thing' may not be sufficient for every situation. Most of the time I'm the only programmer on my projects, so I generally don't have to collaborate with others at the code level. Your mileage may vary. Ask your doctor if the Habit Way is right for you... :o) My $0.02... Thanks - Phil Davis Jim Ault wrote: On 12/1/06 3:36 AM, Dave [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Has got me before now!

Re: Message Box appears
Hello, For all who don't have Galaxy, I have uploaded last year a stack on RevOnline: User: sosmartsoftware Stack: Smart Script Search Description: This utility parses all scripts in any open stack searching for lines of code where any string is present AND any another one is absent. Its main purpose, but it's configurable, is to find orphan puts... Best Regards from Paris, Eric Chatonet Le 1 déc. 06 à 20:28, Stephen Barncard a écrit : just for the record, Jerry Daniel's Galaxy has a feature where you put *put into the search field and it will find all the 'dangling puts'. Use it all the time. Hi Jim and all, IMHO, you guys are making it too hard. I've intentionally developed a habit of always putting test info ' cr after msg'.

Message Box appears
The following script works but each it works the Message Box appears although there is nothing in the script to tell it to appear. After I close the Message Box, it reappears again when I run the script. The Message Box appears even when the Development Tools are suspended.
