Sorry to have bothered the list with my sloppy scripting. Thanks to Scott
Raney's reply I found a way out of it. Now I set the loc of both main and
substack in on openStack (the mainstack) and in the button I just toplevel
the substack.
However, I would like to block the possibility of clicking in the mainstack
which still shows on the screen, and thought that 'set the defaultstack to
"carnet"' would do the trick, but it does not. Any help appreciated.
Regards
