I have a BUG!

Voice Card  -  Volume 17  -  Drury Card Number 1  -  Mon, Oct 29, 1990 10:42 PM







This is ONE OF 3 responses to Vol 16 John 1 ("Suggestion Box")...

I found one!

At least I think it's a bug. It sure acts like one and I can't figure out what is wrong and how to fix it, so it must be a bug! Well, not that MY being able to understand unexpected message boxes has anything to do with a definition of bug. But there is something wrong with the stacks. . .

Whenever I open a hypercard stack, I get a message about missing Palatino fonts 24. Now I don't remember ever having any Palatino font 24. I also can't find it on any of the disks you sent me.

But there it is. I have the greatest of confidence in your ability to remove this annoying little bug.

Oh dear! I have found more little critters. When attempting to create a new voice card, I got a message box claiming "There is no card field named 'curvol'" after I have named my new card. The first time this happened, I clicked the box CANCEL and was able to create this voice card. On the second try of creating another response voice card, I could only get to this card. I do not appear to be able to create any more response cards! So, I tried to create a NEW card. I then got the message "Can't understand argument of 'create'".

Now how is that for a bug!

Hmm.

So John, just where were you at 10:42 PM Monday night? Your mom claims you are/were spending the night in Missoula (darn, I've spelled it three times and it still looks wrong). She also claims this is an easy bug to fix. Of course you didn't just happen to leave her the instructions or call anyone did you!!?
