I manage my MIAWs and a few other things by putting them in behavor properties. I'll show you a behavior I wrote a couple of years ago, rather than explain myself: -- Behavior script "MIAW Manager" property pIdentity, pWindow on beginSprite me pIdentity = sprite(me.spriteNum).member.name.word[2] -- get the name of the script containing relevant miaw details theScript = "D_Window_" & pIdentity -- mGetWindow returns a prop list theList = mGetWindow(script theScript) pWindow = window(theList.theName) pWindow.rect = theList.theRect pWindow.titleVisible = theList.theTitleVisible pWindow.fileName = theList.theFileName open pWindow end beginSprite on endSprite me tell pWindow to saveMovie forget pWindow end endSprite ----------- Dunno if this helps, but thought I'd share it. The script here was used originally in a hefty project in which not one global was used.
