I haven't had any trouble with this method on XP. Haven't tested much on Win98.
The reason for the flash is that you can't 'lock screen' across a send command. You could do something like save the window rect to a property, then move the stack to an offscreen position, then minimize. On uniconify, it will open up at the offscreen position, then set the loc to the saved position after the decorations are set to emtpy.

Chipp,
Wow, what a difference a send can make!
I get a flashing of the screen in the final setting of the decorations in OSX. Do you know any way to stop that?
Also, I wanted to put this in a distributable project but "I can not afford" to have it crashing due to this. Are we 100% sure it does not crash with send? on XP? 98?
Thank you so much for the response
Tom

Thomas,
Sorry, I see you are on the Mac.
This works for me on Mac OSX
in the stack script:
on unIconifyStack send unIconifyMe to this stack in 30 milliseconds end unIconifyStack
on unIconifyMe set the decorations of this stack to empty end unIconifyMe
in the 'minimize me' button script
on mouseUp set the decorations of this stack to default set the iconic of this stack to true end mouseUp
no crashes. the secret is the send command :-)
