DG outcomes on desktop vs mobile

[Dan Friedman]

Phil,

One thing I have noticed is if you have a put command with no destination, mobile devices DO NOT LIKE THIS!!   It will halt script execution completely as if it were an error.   For example:

	put myVar

This would normally put the contents of myVar into the message box.  But on a real phone, it's a disaster!   Maybe you have one of these put's somewhere that is halting executing and causing the DG not to be filled.   Just a thought.

    That's a good question. On desktop, the array variable is full of data. 
    On the iPad it's apparently empty. I'll drill down further and see 
    what's going on.

    Thanks for the idea.
