HELP!! Message-ID: <6001@darkstar.ucsc.edu> Date: 14 Aug 90 21:59:30 GMT Sender: usenet@darkstar.ucsc.edu Distribution: usa Organization: University of California, Santa Cruz; Open Access Computing Lines: 16 Hello, I'm working on a data base front end in hypercard in which I'm storing data into excel, and need to be able to call pictures into the stack. I've tried writing an XCMD to call pictures from a PICT resource and it isn't doing so well. Has anyone else used a picture type data base in HyperCard? Is there another way to go about it that I don't know about? Is there something I might need to be doing different in my XCMD? If you could please respond by mail to hanoirx@ucscb.ucsc.edu, I would greatly appreciate it ... thank you ... Kim Woodward
