I'm getting the message "Too Much Recursion" as I try to leave one card and "go to card ID xxxx". There are alot of globals set, but all of the are emptied before I get to the "go to card..", any suggestions ?? The stack is very complex, so I don't know what else to say about it, but if anyone has any ideas what may be cuasing this, I'd appreciate a reply. thanks

Something is trying to create an infinite loop... The best way to get through this is to trace your program execution...

The best way to get through > this is to trace your program execution... Back to the problem. Is there any difficulty in having a "goto card #" in the script for a card. What is happening is tha I'm trying to simply go between two cards, if I do it in a buton it works o.k., but if I do it in the the script for a card, it will work three times back and forth, then "to much recursion". Does "goto" close the card when it goes to another card, or does it just wait for me to "exit" from the called card. Thank you in advance.

Aha! Are you using ON OPENCARD? That's probably your big problem- When you
open up the stack, EVERY SINGLE TIME, it will repeat that operation.
Diagram of your problem:
Card 1 (go to card 2) ------------> Card 2 (go to card 1)
<--------------
It will continue to go on and on and on...
It's just an infinite back and forth run, and after 2 or 3 of those HC goes
wacko. _Don't_ put go to card xx commands in an opencard, you can get pretty
confused.
