HeirPop 1.9 on Intel Mac

Is anyone having success using hierpop 1.9? The HCMenu result I get from a menu selection does not represent the menu item selected. If fact it's always the same. I'm not familiar enough with memoryblocks to diagnose the problem myself. Any ideas? Using Macbook 10.4.9 w/ RB 2007r1 Gary

Actually, folderitem has a URLPath parameter with the "file://" added. My problem now is that using Launch or ShowURL opens the file in TextEdit. I guess I need to set the MacCreator and/or MacType to something more appropriate. Any ideas? Gary On Mar 9, 2007, at 2:01 PM, Kirk Gray wrote:
