HiCould someone confirm (or otherwise) that what I hope to happen with this script will indeed happen? I have a stack loaded into memory at start up. I have exclusive use of it for a period of time.

But I want to use the data stack again - after it has been changed by someone else but as I haven't quit my program I still have the 'old' version in memory. Will this script force the file to be re-read from disc? command openDataFile pName -------------------------------------------- if gWaitingToGoAgainAfterTimeOut = false then -- load the file first time of asking put "data/"&pName into tName open invisible stack tName else -- stack could have changed -- clear my old version out of memory -- and load stack again set the destroyStack of stack pName to true close stack pName open invisible stack tName end if end openDataFile
It should. But I usually just use the "revert" command, which forces a reload without closing the stack.
