Can one of the gurus take a look at the attached module and tell me why it won't display? It shows up in the module list accessible through the upper right but it won't show up in my reference books on the right. Usually, this behavior means there is an xml format error, but, as you can see, this module is almost empty and is just a shell. What in the world is wrong with it?

Your definition file has no ruleset associated with it. Thus the module is not tied to any ruleset. Modules are normally associated with a certain ruleset and only are shown when a campaign is loaded that uses the same ruleset called out in the definition file. Since there is no ruleset associated with the module, I assume that tells FG to *never* display the module.

OK, I'll fix that. I thought if the ruleset clashed, you wouldn't see it in the module activation screen.

Thanks!

You don't. But it's a positive control - it only shows up if there *is* a match with a ruleset. If you want it to work with any ruleset you might want to make an extention.

Roger the extension, but I've got something tricky in mind for this little baby, and I can't do it in an extension. If it works out, I'll post it all here.
