Sounds like a glitch in the code block.
Try
opening the 'problem' stack
copy the mouseUp script to a word processor
quit Rev
launch Rev to get a clean environment
do "New Mainstack"
copy the script to the stack script, apply
then double click on the card to run this
Should work. If so, then I would reconstruct your old stack since there
could be another gremlin or two lurking. Stack file glitches could cause
several problems.
