Ken, thanks for some other things to think about AND TRY. (smile)

I guess my biggest problem right now is to figure out why the ask and answer dialogs are not working in the "real stack", though I'm fiddling with the standalone Splash Screen settings - which may help. (smile - still!)

1. Since I'm testing by running XP under VMWare Fusion, I'm wondering what "platform" is returned by Rev. I had assumed (unfortunately) that
using an "if the platform is not MacOS" would cover me for just about
any eventuality, but it would seem this may not be the case with this
configuration. I should be able to insert "put the platform" somewhere
in my stack that will clue me in, but haven't gone that route yet.

Well, running under WinXP on a true PC, if you ask for "the platform", you get "Win32". I also get this running Rev 2.9 under VMWare Fusion as well.

BTW, I would also suggest that you put quote your "if the platform"
statement so that "MacOS" can't be looked at as a literal. For example, if you execute this on Windows, you'll see the answer box come back "true":

 put "Win32" into MacOS
 answer (the platform is MacOS)

whereas this will answer "false":

 put "Win32" into MacOS
 answer (the platform is "MacOS")

2.  My other dilemma is that the "command key" short-cuts for menu
items in the Windows "btn group", designated as Ctrl-"something" work
erratically; sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. Any clue as
to why this might be the case?

Is this in the IDE, or in your standalone? If it's in the IDE, then the IDE
might be getting in the way...
