Hi Jacqi,

Still struggling with this thing. Actually, I decided to make a Classic Standalone of a Rev stack instead of an HyperCard stack that was converted; just to see if there is a difference. My problem right now is that my mind is too fragmented - not doing some stuff I should be doing instead of playing around with Rev. I'm sure I'll solve this eventually. There was a problem with my document type. I just don't program often enough to keep all this stuff in "my" RAM. Thanks for the guidance.

Hi Jacqi,
Didn't get the -199 error, but couldn't find the application that created it, so wouldn't open. After transferring the zipped file to my G4, I unzipped it with the Stuffit Expander. Should I have used something else?

That should have worked. But if you are getting a message that the OS can't find the application that "created" it, that means the OS doesn't recognize the file as an application. Usually that means the creator and type codes aren't set right. In the Standalone Settings dialog, you need to make sure that the document type is set to "APPL". The Creator signature can be a code you've registered with Apple, or (for your own use) any 4-character code you invent, or you can just leave it as the default "????".

Set those and try rebuilding.
