Hi Mike, OK the messages were locked. When I unlocked them the datagrid works fine. It may make sense to delete the prefs files, but I don't know where they are. What are the names of the prefs files I need to delete? Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.

(the substack is added when you place a datagrid into your stack) the datagrid isn't functional without that substack. Is it there in the app browser? I also wonder if messages are locked or.. well not sure. If you start with a fresh new stack, drop a datagrid on it, and add data to the grid (even manually through the inspector) does it show? If you set the dgtext does it work? Are you having issues with every single stack that you use with a datagrid or just that stack? You might try adding a new empty datagrid to your stack, then delete it and when it asks if you want to delete the template stack, say no. Then test your other stack and see if it starts working. As for reloading LC, hard to say the best method without knowing OS. If its windows, you can probably uninstall it through the control panel. Linux, not sure. Mac not sure because i've never really had a problem that required a software removal. While at it, what version of lc are you on? If 6.0 community, i'd definitely grab the upgrade, it fixes a few issues. If you want to have your non-working stack looked at you're welcome to send it my way. Oh, just recalled one more thing. It might not hurt to remove the preferences file for LC, but I forget where they reside so you might need to dig around to locate. (appdata folder or somewhere therabout) _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ 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
