CD Sampler.BW Gives an Error in HyperCard (3/94)

The CD Sampler.BW on Apple's CD-ROM Titles Sampler give error T63 when attempting to run demos. The CD Sampler.Color works fine.

To duplicate: Open the CD Sampler.BW stack, click on
Opening the stack with the complete version of HyperCard 2.2 instead of the Player will generate a different error. At the point where the t63 error had appeared, the error "Don't understand "colorizeHC" now appears. The colorHC reference is to a series of XCMDs that add color to the HyperCard interface.

This XCMD has been used with the Sampler stacks. There appears to be a problem with properly handling the color depth when using these XCMDs. This should be handled more gracefully than it is.

Unfortunately, there is no workaround for this problem. Since the stack is a protected stack, there is no way to workaround the presentation of the error messages.
