OK, I got the standalone to work after selecting BOTH datagrid and table options in the DP 9 version.

So I am stumped: Program works fine in LiveCode, but fails as standalone. I have even tried selecting all the inclusions and it still fails. Why could this be?

Win 10 - LiveCode 9 DP 10

Never mind! It was not opening within DP 10. I see the option now. I'll report back if it works (first try failed).

So under DP 10 I cannot find the option to select "DataGrid" as an inclusion. Program seems to work when I can select "DataGrid" as an inclusion (earlier version of LiveCode) - but is failing to work in DP 10. I even selected EVERY possible inclusion and it still failed. No break points either.

Hey!

I selected the option to let me choose the "inclusions". I then selected "data grid" and saved it as a standalone application. That caused it to process the files with drag-n-drop!

Thanks!

Does not work on Win 7 or Win 10.

Any ideas? Am I missing an option in Standalone settings?

Hi!

LiveCode is 9.0 DP 10 (?).
OS is Win 10

I'll try on Win 7 too.

Hi all,

I have a program that works fine when opened within LiveCode. I then save it as a standalone and the main part of the program no longer works! I am dragging and dropping files into a data grid. It changes colors like I want based on DragEnter and DragDrop, but it fails to process the files ...

Just curious - is this a bug or just me experiencing this? I could use a workaround to avoid the issue, but if updating will resolve it I might do that, too.

Hi all,

I've noticed that if I grab a directory of a file using code like this:

on dragDrop
repeat for each line theLine in the dragData["files"]
put URL ("file:" & theLine) into theFilePath
end repeat
end dragDrop

It returns something like this:

C:\Users\ID\Desktop\Folder Here\File Here ...

Hey y'all,

I figured out how to get the info I want. Now I am just trying to figure out a way to open each file and get some meta data for each file!

But here's the code I used to list all the files on a drag and drop:

on dragEnter
set the acceptDrop to true
repeat for each line theLine in the ...

Hi all,

I want to drag and drop multiple files into a data grid. These files would come from a folder on the local computer, not from the livecode application itself. I then want those files locations to put put into a column into the datagrid. Any thoughts?

Is it correct to start with "dragEnter ...

I have created a data grid with two columns, but I cannot figure out how to make the first column a text column (or a checkbox):

Just looking at a data grid and it seems like exactly what I want! Thank you!

Once I import the data into the grid, is there anything special to turn the row into a checkbox? Or can you make just the first column a checkbox, and the other columns pure data. That might be good for my purposes ...
