A clue for using Valentina by XCMD

[Andre Garzia]

a simple advise is also to download valentina client from their page, 
is a standalone nifty app that will allow you to create your databases. 
Then you can use the vdbs in Rev. Also read the manual of Valentina 
core/kernel you'll find very cool functions!

PS: no... I never been able to call them, I always get a the same error 
you get.
