Using Externals

[Tomas Franzén]

Hi,

I wrote to this list a while ago about not getting my own externals to 
work in Rev.
Now it seems that I can't get any externals to work, at all!
I think some transparency would be nice, so I decided to try out the 
Window external from Blue Mango.

1. I downloaded Window, and placed the DLL in the same directory as my 
stack.
2. I set the externals property of my stack to the full path of the DLL 
external, Window.dll.
3. Saved and re-opened my stack.
4. The externalfunctions and externalcommands properties are empty!

I also tried setting the defaultFolder and setting the externals 
property to "Window.dll", but to no avail.
Also tried the stack available on the Window external homepage... still 
empty.

I'm currently using Windows 2000.
I must be missing something here, or is using externals total rocket 
science? :-)
Thanks.
