Hi,

as I didn't find anything related despite extensive search,
would anybody be so kind to test the following, it is done in seconds:

Save a stack with an editable field as standalone in any 2.8 version  
IDE.
Now check what happens when you try to open the standalone.


I get the following error no matter if it is a Win standalone or
a Mac standalone:

Type: Function: error in function handler
Object: button "revTable" of group "revLibraries" of card id 1002 of  
stack ...
Line: set the cCurrentObject of the target to revPaletteObjects()
Line Num: 50
Hint: revPaletteObjects

This happens as soon, as the field gets the openField message


The same test works with version 2.7.4 but ...

If, in version 2.7.4, I place an editable table field onto the stack
I get an error as follows in the standalone as soon as I click onto  
the table:

Type: Handler: can't find handler
Object: button "revTable" of group "revLibraries" of card id 1002 of  
stack ...
Line: send "revUpdateDatabase pObject,txcell,tycell,tNewText" to pObject
Line Num: 451
Hint: revUpdateDatabase


Can anybody confirm this? If yes, is there a known workaround?

This subject bothers me since several hours and the deadline for
a meeting with the client is coming close. I don't dare thinking
about the case, that this can not be solved. Sure, I could avoid
using fields in the application file and open external stacks within the
standalone, but in my special case I have good reasons for not to do so.

Thanks for your attention!
