Hello list,
Two days ago I reported:
"On Mac OSX, RR 2.1
there is a simple stack: one button with the script:
------
on mouseup
save this stack
if the result is not empty then
answer the result with "ok"
else
answer "saved!" with "ok"
end mouseup
------
If I run that script under the developer-environment with the stack on
my HardDisk, no problems.
If I run the stack from our slow Windows-NT-Server, I get an error:
"cant´open file"
On the server remains the stack with tilde.
If I retry, it gets saved without error.
Next try I get an error again, next time no error and so on.
...."
In the meantime I got a workaround with your help:
------
on mouseup
put the filename of this stack into fn
if there is a file fn then
delete file fn
end if
save this stack as fn
answer "saved!" with "ok"
end mouseup
------
This script saves the stack local and on the Windows-NT-Server without
errors.

Pardon, Alex; the last two sentences in my original report were
nonsense;
they belonged to another problem.

It´s a folder, that´s right!
