I have a stack that in one place and one place only when the script calls for 
“ask … with … as sheet” sheets the ask dialog and then it promptly loses focus. 
If I try to type a replacement for the default text or hit <return> to affirm 
the default text, nothing happens — the dialog has lost focus as one can see by 
the hilite color for the text and the lack of blue background for the “OK” 
button. I have to click in the text field, then do what I want with the dialog. 
Have not tracked this down. At this point I can’t recall which “ask…” command 
this occurs in so I can post that section of script, but it only happens in 
that one place. I don’t know if this is related to the defaultstack issue.
