This question gets asked about 1000 times every day so check the archives first!!
Anyway, you're gonna run into problems if you try and close the MIAW from within itself because Director will continue to run a handler (even if it's just to close down) that no longer exists - hence your crash. You need to control closing MIAWs from the main movie - set a flag inside the MIAW that it needs to be closed and when the master stage movie notices this flag *it* will close it. The follow code is from Tab (I saved it because I can never remember myself): (from the window you want to kill) global gWindowToKill gWindowToKill =the activeWindow (and in an idle handler or exit frame on the stage, that loops around): global gWindowToKill if not (voidP(gWindowToKill)) then forget gWindowToKill gWindowToKill =VOID end if This should od the trip nicely...
