Well, if anyone else has been able to make a Classic standalone,
either from a new Rev Stack or from a HC stack that has been opened as
a Rev Stack, I'd sure like to hear about it. On my Mac Pro Running
Leopard and G4 running OS 9.2.2 I have not been able to achieve it. On
my last efforts, the unzipped files did not even show an application
Icon, though I did have the APPL and ???? file types set. The
Universal Binary versions worked fine on the Mac Pro and showed the
appropriate icons. Prior to zipping the two apps I tried, when double
clicking them, they were recognized as Classic apps. I suppose the
problem has to be in the transfer, but I've had no problems with other
application and document transfers made in this same way. A little
discouraging.

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.
