I was using Quest 5.0 and everything was fine. I updated to Quest 5.01 and now it keeps crashing. Sometimes, when I select the 'If" and pick one of the selections in the scroll down, the program won't let me select anything. I have to shut it down and then reload the program and do it again. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Is it only on the "if" editor that you're getting problems? Is there any pattern - does it occur only after you've been using the editor for a long time, for example?

You can downgrade back to v5.0.0 - you can find it on the download page under "Previous versions". It would be worth trying that, to see if it really is the v5.0.1 upgrade that has introduced the problem, or if it could be something else.

Well I'm not sure when it occurs. I just tried a 'switch' and when the editor came up the problem started. I'll keep running the 5.01 and make notes on what I was doing when the problems occurs. I still have 5.0 and will go back to it later if I have to.

I had the same problem. It happens to me when I nest a lot of If statements inside one another. I tried using switches, but I don't find them as versatile yet as the If statements, on account of the drop down menu. Also, sometimes I'd open an if and it will close the program, telling me that a variable was undefined before I even enter something. Due to my newness, I'm not certain if this is a 5.01 or 5.0 problem.

If you get any error messages like that, please copy and paste the entire message to an email and send it to me at [email protected], and let me know what you were doing at the time - how long you'd had the Editor open, and what specifically you were editing. If you attach your .aslx file and let me know what you were editing, that will help me to reproduce the problem so I can fix it.

Ok I entered alot of if statements and nothing happened. I entered a 'switch' command and make the script. I exited the switch command and went to the object's attributes and entered a flag. When I went back to the switch command to edit it the problem started. I couldn't add the flag, I couldn't delete anything. I could close the script editor and move around the program but I couldn't edit or delete anything until I closed the program and restarted it.

I just tested it with the appended file and I got this message:

I cant add any 'else' or 'else if' any more

Logged http://quest.codeplex.com/workitem/929 so I will look at this soon (unless anybody else wants to have a go!)

I just tried to test the show-command, but when using this command it does not display the defaulttemplate but "I don't understand your command." Perhaps there is something wrong with it?

I don't understand... also is this related to the problem described above in this thread? One thread per problem please!
