Thanks Kevin. Can I just check what you mean by the above. The
support stacks I'm using are all in their own separate *.mc files and
designated as 'mainstacks', and they all have destroy stack & window
set.
How should I close them such that they fully disappear, but can be
reopened at any time with either 'modeless path/stack.mc' type
command - or any other sensible way of opening them? I don't want to
save anything in these support stacks - they are used for printing
and displaying on-screen help. They are outside the main stacks I'm
developing so they can be shared between them rather than repeat them
within each main CBT stack.
Cheers
Peter
