UPDATE: Missing Functionality

[Bob Sneidar]

Well with the time calculator I discovered I was calling another custom function in my timeCalc function which I had NOT included in the card script of the standalone. So that is solved. I have not been able to figure out the revMail problem though. I'll loook into that later. 

Thanks for humoring me all. :-)
