I've come across an odd problem with HyperCard 2.0. Ive got HC2, and its stacks on one Hard Disk, and a few stacks on another Hard Disk. Sometimes, when I've been using a stack (HyperFTP) on the second disk, HyperCard seems to get confused - it can't find the Home stack if you click on a Home icon, and if you double click a stack in the Finder on the second disk, Hypercard gives error -35 (Cant find the Volume). Something somewhere seems to be screwing up how HC keeps track of disks. Anyone else noticed this? And/or have any useful comments to make? Ralph

No answers here, but a related problem (probably). My netnews stack is on a different volume than HyperCard 2.0. Every so often, when I double-click on netnews reader, I get the message telling me that the application is not found. Also, every time I launch netnews, it takes a *long* time (45-60 seconds) before the HyperCard menu bar appears. This also happens with other stacks, I think, but I use netnews reader most frequently. David Gutierrez drg@mdaali.cancer.utexas.edu "Only fools are positive." - Moe Howard
