Hi can someone refresh my mind on how to convert a revolution stack built in 2.8.1 to modern livecode? When I try and open it up in Livecode it says the file is corrupt.
They open up in Revolution 2.8.1 though just fine.
Thanks,
Dave

In general old stacks work fine in the latest LC, unless you're using the Community Edition and trying to open a stack that had been password-protected, which will throw the "corruption" error since the Community Edition can't open those.
If that's not the case with your stack you may want to send it with a message to support AT runrev.com.

Re: Converting Rev stacks built with 2.8.1 to Livecode
Thanks for your quick reply !!! Yes that was the problem. So I used my password to gain access and then typed
"set the password of this stack to empty" into the message box and saved the stack.
Then it opened right up in LC 6.
Thanks again !
