Hi Brennan,
Check out the "Creating or declaring a MIAW" section of the DMX 2004
documentation.
Regards,
Daniel

After much hair pulling, eventually leading to downloading a sample dir
from Macromedia's site, I discovered that the docs about MIAWs in DMX 2004
are lacking *any* mention of the important step of calling new() when
opening a new window.
i.e. what used to be accomplished by
open window "someFilename.dir"
...must now be...
window().new("someFilename.dir").open()
This essential call to new() is not mentioned anywhere in the docs AFAICT.
Without it, you can't really do anything with MIAWs. I'm just mentioning
it here so it might get caught by a search of the archives.
I've added an entry on DOUG's WIKI page about MIAWs so that this important
detail might be more easily discovered. I spent too long finding it out!
