Compiling Error

Hi everyone. I'm having one of those insane programming moments for 
which I really need some help and advice.
Here is my problem as clearly stated as I can do it:

I have this piece of code, it works perfectly fine on a prototype stack 
which I'm using to build my final application.

on goNextThing
   lock screen
   goThing sThing+1
   unlock screen with visual effect dissolve
end goNextThing

Yet, when I try to apply this code to my new stack with the code "with 
visual effect dissolve" I get a parse error and message "Unquoted 
Literal"

This code works but with no visual effect:

on goNextThing
   lock screen
   goThing sThing+1
   unlock screen
end goNextThing

I was thinking that i'm getting this "Unquoted Literal" error because 
the syntax somewhere else on that script is broken but I went through 
the code character by character and there isn't any broken code at all.

I should note that on my previous post about this problem I stated the 
target stack was different from the stack the code is in, I changed 
that and it's all happening in one stack now. The action works 
perfectly until I add the line "with visual effect dissolve".

Can anyone offer some insight?

Thanks
