I will give it a try, but does anyone know if openCard gets called if the Stack is not visibe?
Your solution below looks interesting, I will try it.
The thing is that how do I know that the "start using" will be called BEFORE the go stack "xxx" is executed? This is just a dummy stack that is used to hold command functions and the menubar.
Cheers Dave
The problem might be that your Stack isn't loaded fully when you initiate the command. Did you try to issue the command in a later time, maybe like this (untested):
on openStack send doStartUsing to me in 2 seconds pass openStack end openStack
on doStartUsing put the filename of this stack into myStackFileName start using stack myStackFileName end doStartUsing

Hi All,
I have this on the Stack Script:
on openStack
[pass open Stack] put the filename of this stack into myStackFileName
start using stack myStackFileName [pass openStack] end openStack
When this executes I get an error saying this is no such stack. the lines inside the [] are lines that I tried in an effort to get it to work, but I but get the error. If I put the same script inside a button handler is works ok.
I am loading substacks independantly with code like this:
put the filename of this stack into myStackFileName set itemdelimiter to "/" put empty into last item of myStackFileName put myStackFileName & "StackFile.rev" into myStackFileName
go to stack myStackFileName
or modal stack myStackFileName
But I want the Stack I am moving to have access to the Stack Script of the calling script.
In this case it's a test and I can put the "start using" in the button handler, but in the real app there will be no button and I just want to move directly to another Stack without any user intervention.
So, my questions,
should this work in the openStack Handler? If so what I am doing wrong?
If not, where do I put these commands? I just want other stacks to have access to functions in the StackScript.
Thanks a lot Dave _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
