Hi guys,
I'm having a bit of trouble... I'm trying to write an app where it finds the nearest store, based on latitude and longitude. I've checked out a few examples on how to use the built-in iphone gps, and here's the code I have on the card script:

on OpenCard
iphoneStartTrackingLocation
put iphoneCurrentLocation() into tLocation
end OpenCard

This creates an error stating: execution error at line 2 (Handler: can't find handler) near "iphoneStartTrackingLocation", char 1

...I'm at a loss here - what is wrong??

I have tried the same code in LCC 6.5.2, 6.6 (dp 1) and 6.6 (rc 1).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Jan,
You cannot run mobile commands in the IDE
You have to skip out of them while developing and use the sim or a real device for testing.
on openCard
if the environment is "development" then exit openCard
iphoneStartTrackingLocation
etc.

I'd also work with the mobile... commands (unless there isn't one?)
mobileStartTrackingSensor
