    If all you're doing is settings the variable streamInKeys, I wouldn't it to do anything. Almost certainly you wouldn't want to have streamInKeys defined as a local variable - because it may not get passed to the stream in process when you launch it.

    Which version are you using? The stream interface is very different in IC5141 and even changes in different IC61 versions. So please follow the forum guidelines and give the version details.

    Best Regards,

    Andrew.

    Thanks andrew for the promprt reply, actually i am trying to build the skill scripts whereby feasible to be use in both platform of 6.14 and 5.141, due to i want the final scripts to be as simple as possible i am thinking should i put this in one single skill scripts to use in both world, currently i am using direct "strmin" option in 614 and using "pipo strmin" for 5.141 and i need to maintain the template file in 5.141 but it is not useable in 614 (without conversion).

     Do you have any suggestion so that i can combine both world setup? thanks.
