Bob,
I'm curious. Try this change and see what happens.

Okay I went back and checked the permissions thing. I have read and
write to it and I copied the file to my desktop to make sure.
Permissions are not the issue. But I am getting empty when I read
from the file now, whereas before "it" never changed when I read
from a file. BTW I AM running code in a button that is part of a
group that is a background. Possible issue?? Here is the updated code:
ON mouseUp
answer file "Select the program file to import:" of type "F+PR"
put it into mfilename
IF mfilename is empty THEN exit mouseup
put slyfilefrompath(mfilename) into mshortfile
IF char -4 of mshortfile is "." THEN
put char 1 to -5 of mshortfile into mmodule
END IF
IF there is a card (mmodule) THEN
go card (mmodule)
ELSE
new card
set the name of this card to tolower(mmodule)
END IF
-- Read from file method
-- open file mfile
open file mfile for read
put the result into mres
-- mres is empty here indicating a successful open
read from file mfile at 1 until eof
-- it is empty here!!!!! AAAAAGGGGKKKKKKKK!
put it into field code
close file mfile
-- URL method
-- put "file:" & mfilename into mfile
-- put url mfile into field code
set the text of field "lblcode" to "Code: " & tolower
(slyfilefrompath(mfilename))
END mouseUp
