Hello Mac Newsworld, I need some help. I am using Zbasic 4.01 by Zedcor Corp. to write a stand-alone Mac application. The application of course makes use of the interface (menus,buttons,windows,etc..) Event trapping is used for Dialog, Menu, Timer, and Break events as per the example in the Macintosh appendix of the manual. The example they supply works fine but after I modified it, it CRAPS OUT! I have the Menu manager set up to branch to a "Menu" routine upon a menu event. In the "Menu" routine is: "Menu" . . . M0=MENU(0) : 'returns the menu selected M1=MENU(1) : 'returns the menu item from M0 (whole bunch of IF/THEN's in here for other menu items) IF M0=5 AND M1=4 THEN END . . . RETURN It crashes the system when I selected Item 4 from Menu 5. WHY?????? I've checked and re-checked a million times and I can't find the problem with my logic. I get system error #25 when my Mac dies. The ZBasic manual shows error #25 to be: Can't allocate Mem block. This doesn't make sense though cause it craps out on a Mac II just the same with plenty of memory to spare. The application is just a skeleton, very small (8 pages of source text). What is going on???? Can anyone help (preferably someone who has coded in ZBasic)?????? Thanks in advance. Vince Paragano Concurrent Computer Corporation
