error in function handler revPaletteObjects

[Ralf Bitter]

Jacqueline,

you are a lifesaver.
It makes sense, after all I have investigated, to bypass
the IDE function, although I didn't dare to do that as I thought
all handlers in the IDE are more or less needed.

Thank you very much, I was about to go crazy, as with my last
tests I couldn't reproduce the error at all. But I kept error stacks  
of prior tests,
so that I can confirm now, that your solution works.

Thanks again for your quick answer!
