    Default ESC key generating #range error

    I've a projector which copies files using buddyApi to the user's hard drive.
    In the .ini file I've set escape = 0 so the user can't press Esc to quit the CD.
    Trouble is that if they do press Esc when the files are being copied it gives an error:

    'handler not defined #range'

    I've searched for 'range' through all my scripts & it doesn't exist. WTF is going on?

    Any ideas??


    cheers.

    I guess you'd better post this to buddyAPI's website/support

    Does it work any better if you set 'the exitLock = 0' instead of escape? As
    you've written it, escape is simply a variable that has nothing to do with
    a user hitting a key.

    #range is commonly used as a property in getPropertyDescriptionList
    handlers in behaviors on sprites, but I'm not sure how that would apply in
    this situation. Don't forget to Compile All Scripts fairly often.

    Does it work any better if you set 'the exitLock = 0' instead of escape? As

    I'm setting EscapeOk=0 in the ini file which prevents the Esc key exiting the CD as usual.


    #range is commonly used as a property in getPropertyDescriptionList

    Yep I know and this is the only place in my code where 'range' is present, very odd.

    Still baffled.

    Oh, yeah. I didn't catch that in your OP. Does it work if you comment that
    line out of the .ini and put the exitLock line in your movie instead?
