Hi Peter,
Welcome to Revolution. Sorry you're having so many problems. Reminds me
when I first starting trying to integreate VB scripts with the Visual
InterDev and not knowing what I was doing, got very upset...
Of the many issues you complain about, some are part of learning how to
use Rev.
Peter,
I've mentioned a million times and as usual future complains dont seem to be
an issue ;) The script editor, although rather simple, is not so bad once
you get used to avoiding its traps. But it's much better than it previously
was...
I made a much superior editor to the old MetaCard
Dear fellow Revolution Programmers.
Thank you so much for your kind help! I must thank
you all for your positive input. Your understanding

Hi,
I've been using RunRev on and off for about a year now. I must say
this I kind of agree with you about the Script Editor. However I
really don't see it as that big an issue if you just follow the

As Richard suggested, you should contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] and see if

Another serious bug to look out for is the 'breakpoints' bug. If you

See what a great group of friendly and helpful people

FWIW, the engine is about 14 years old, and the RunRev IDE
