Thanks Jacque, I more or less suspected this but since it was not in the dictionary thought I would seek confirmation. Here's another little conundrum I've run into that you might be able to help with (or someone). I've stored an encrypted password away in a custom property called cpassword and use the following code to compare the user entered value: on askpassword ask password "Enter password:" if it is empty then quit if it = the cpassword of this stack then exit askpassword else # incorrect password answer "Incorrect password. Please try again." askpassword end if end askpassword Now, before I begin, both the stack in the IDE and tested on the iPhone simulator report the encrypted pw as \VUw|1,A so, no difference there. The above code works fine on the IDE when the correct pw is entered (montreal), and loops endlessly on the iPhone saying "Incorrect password. Please try again" when the same password is entered. Any wisdom or guidance for the lost???? Thanks -- M PS have not tried it on a real iPhone yet, but probably will try that just to rule out the improbable likelihood that this is a sim related problem. -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/startup-handler-tp4117800p4118026.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ 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
