I have just noticed that I cannot create any new "out" objects -- the 

MAX window says "error: out: No such object."

The "out" object appears in the "New Object" list that pops up when 

creating a new object, and I can right-click/help the "out" and the help 

file is displayed explaining how to use the thing. "in" works fine as 

well as "in~" and "out~" -- and I have just recently discovered that 

"*Out" does work, but only when capitalized*. I do not know whether 

this makes the error more or less strange, but at least I have a 

I am running MaxMSP 4.5.6 on WinXP SP2. I have installed the fiddle~, 

bonk~, ejies, tl.objects, MaxToolbox, and FFTease externals.

This is not a dire situation since I do have the "Out" work-around, but 

if anyone has any ideas about why this error is occurring I would love

After all that... using the "out" with the capital "O" ("Out") made the 

"out" with the lower-case "o" work fine. I am confused about what the 

heck the computer was thinking, but glad it has decided to work.

I am sorry for bothering you all with this.
