Standalone problem - architect

[Joe Lewis Wilkins]

Mark,

Thank you very much for the suggested resolution; I hope it works. Not sure exactly how to go about installing a fresh copy of Rev, or even where to obtain it. I'll try the obvious sources.

>> OK, this is the problem. I've been working full time on an app for the better part of a month or more. When I first started, it consisted of a main stack and a sub-stack. One had 68 cards; the other 280. Not really complicated stuff. Full card images with fields and buttons on top of the images and complete TitleBar Menus. A good UI. When nearly complete, I built a standalone. No problem with either the Mac or Windows versions. I then decided, for some very good reasons of my own, to split the Main stack into a main and another sub-stack. Once I completed that, not as easy as you might think, I tried to build another standalone. The first time through I got a dialog saying that the standalone was successfully built; however three warnings appeared below that statement.

I have now tried to build the application in excess of a dozen times, making no other changes by diddling with anything; the result being that I receive alternate warnings. 3 then 2, then 3, then 2, etc. etc. Talk about frustration!!!!!!!!!! Unless someone has an easy resolution to this problem, Rev will no longer be in my toolbox, even though I've used it for lots of things that don't require a standalone or Window's versions. I certainly won't be moving up to LC.
