- Help! I just spent the last 4 hours writing and testing a button script.
- I accidentally hit the delete key with this button selected using the
- button tool. Bingo, the button is gone. I immediately did a hard power off
- from the back of the machine (I was hoping that this result wouldn't have been
- written yet). But it was gone when I came back. So I have tried the theory
- that the script might still be in the stack file somewhere, just in the free
- space. So I copied the file, changed its type to TEXT, creator MACA, and
- looked at it with MS Word 4.0. I couldn't find my text, alas....Although I did
- find all kinds of old scripts that I got rid of a long while ago....
-
- Any ideas? I am resigned to the prospect that there is no hope. However,
- I would love any info anyone has.
-
- Oh yeah, I should say that I was running HC 1.2.5.
-
- Thanks..
