well the first approach is much much cooler than the latter one, innit? :-) Jokes aside, one advantage is that someone else can create that "template" stack, my customer in this case, and since this is a separate stack file it can thus contain substacks, which can be another big advantage in some situations. > It is a very different way of storing a stack.

But as I wrote, if I load a stack from my hd, everything works as advertised!? Anyway, I have a nice workaround and a happy customer. Have a nice weekend.
