Wrote a little desk accessory for a friend, and it worked fine on
my Mac Plus. Put it on his SE, and when Suitcase II runs my DA doesn't.
No Suitcase, everything is fine. My hunch is that my DA isn't finding
a resource.
So.... How does Suitcase change the DA environment?
I'm using LSP 2.01, and their tricky DRVR header that allows
referencing globals off of A4. It's been working great 'till now.

More information would be useful; saying "it doesn't work" leaves lots of room for inference. :-) --Rich Rich Siegel Staff Software Developer THINK Technologies Division, Symantec Corp.

I wrote a DA a coule of weeks ago using LSP 2.0 (but none of that fancy A4 stuff) and it works fine under Suitcase II. One bizarre thing that Suitcase does is that it changes the order of resource files open so that its suitcase files come AFTER the System file. Check it out with TMON or something. Anyhow, this seems to suggest that your theory about resource finding difficulties may have some merit. ____________________________________________________________________ Have a day. :^| Murat N.
