Problem with Library Stack

Hi,
Playing around, changed it so the "go" command is issues before the
call to the function to see if that would make a difference. When I run:
breakpoint
go stack "/Documents/Programming/RunRevBase//RunTime/Stacks/
LibPDF.rev"
breakpoint
get ControlGenerateResults
(myAnalysisHandle,myFilePathName,myNumberOfFrames)
It hits the first breakpoint, then Crashes the - Lib Stack never
comes to the front. The start using has been performed during
initialization (in preOpenStack).
The lib script has a lot of function in the stack script and this:
on libraryStack
end libraryStack
on releaseStack
end releaseStack
I did try opening it in the libraryStack handler, but this crashed
also, so I moved it.
Any ideas? I'm dead in the water now!
Thanks a lot
All the Best
Dave
