I cannot bring up HC anymore because of this error.
I'm forced to quit but I can go into Hypercard Home if that helps

Doing a search in the Yahoo group it looks like it's corrupted but could be saved if you know programming (which I don't).

Any suggestions?
Thanks

I knew I'd seen this error spoken of before.

Have a look at

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.hypercard/browse_thread/thread/dc8b1d1a7300b994

where Mark Schonewille answered a similar query some years back.

Hi,

Although the Pantechnicon can now be found at http://pantechnicon.runrev.info/ you will probably be unable to find any downloads.

I made a utility, Split and Recover, which copies cards from a stack into a new stack. It might freeze or crash when it encounters a corrupt card, but when you try again it will skip that corrupt card and continue with the next. Since I made it in HyperCard, you need Mac OS 9 to run it. You can download the utility here http://qurl.tk/is .

Hi
Thanks for the suggestions
I tried to download the Split and Recover application but it takes me to the "What can we do for you" page
Am I going to the wrong link?

There is a utility called Recover that's been around for ages, and does
the same thing. It is posted to the HyperCard Files section of the Yahoo
Groups page. Log into your Yahoo groups and you should be able to
download it from there.

I tried it and it gave me an error message saying that it failed to compact stack and the stack may be corrupted.
I had no luck with the Recover application that is in the Yahoo Hypercard Files folder
Thanks for trying

Hi,

Can you write that again, _what_ exactly have you tried? If you can open your stack in HC then you can also open it with S&R. You need to read the documentation though.

I cannot bring up my stack which is why I get the "Unexpected error 160690" then I'm forced to quit.

When I use the application Recover, it asks for the stack to recover, so I get my stack, then I click recover, then a get a message "This stack has not been converted. It must be converted before it can be modified." Then I'm forced to quit the application.

When using Split & Recover, it asks for the stack, then when I click on Split, it asks for a place to save it so I choose a folder, then a message appears, "This failed because an error occurred. Failed to compact stack. Stack may be corrupted, in splitStack. Please contact the author..."
