I'm trying to get an error message that prints in the max window to come out of an object so I can use this information in my patch.

I read in the max/msp database that an object called 'error' from cycling does just this. Problem is you need to pay for it.

Is there a free object out there to perform this function?

I do own max/msp, but it is an old version for Mac OS9. Version 4.0 I think.

I don't that object exists in my version.

I'm a musician.. Don't have enough money at the moment to get new fancy software for mac OSX.

Very sorry. You were right... I have the error object in my version of MAX/MSP 4.0...

The funny thing is this object doesn't show up in my object list inside MAX and I can't even find the file anywhere on the computer. That is why I never knew about it.

Sorry about the waiste of your time, thanks a million

It doesn't exist on your HD because it's an *internal* object (it's 

embed in the Max application itself). I'm glad you found it.
