The last one is possible. As far as substacks getting moved and breaking
references, the Standalone Builder takes that into account I believe. Also, if
the stack files are contained in the folder the SB creates for them, I
*believe* that the engine will upon failing to find a stack reference,
If the script of an object is running, the stack it belongs to is open. If you
reference an object in a closed stack (correct me if I am wrong) LC will load
the stack the object belongs to into memory.

Would this work with a stack on disk that hasn't been opened yet?
Definitely stealing your functions thx. :)
Oh, as to the OP, my first thought on why it wasn't working, is that the
stack wasn't open (hence the need to address it's on disk location), but
another thought occurred to me. I'm
Don't you mean:
put the dgdata of grp 1 of CARD 1 OF stack "path/to/dgstack.livecode" into
tDataA
If you are going to be using full paths for this, I recommend using my fine
functions getParentCard() and getParentStack().
function getParentCard pObjectID
put offset("card id", pObjectID)
Have you tried something like this? It works for me. (though I just set
the folder to the stacks location and use only the filename of the stack)
put the dgdata of grp 1 of stack "path/to/dgstack.livecode" into tDataA

Hi,
i am running into the following problem.
I have a datagrid on card 1 of a substack.
I can fetch this data from the mainstack w/o problems in the LC IDE and also in
a standalone if the substacks are included in the executable.
But as soon as i set the option in standalonebuilder to "move
