I clone a substack of a .exe using this script. global tStackName, tFileName on doFileNew ask file "Name new database file:" with "MyDatabase.abd" if it is empty then exit to top put it into tFileName if char -4 to -1 of tFileName is not ".abd" then put ".abd" after tFileName set the itemDelimiter to "/" put last item of tFileName into tStackName --Puts the filename you created into a variable that can be used to name the stack later set the visible of stack "Master Database" to false clone stack "Master database" -- so you dont see it popup on cloning set the name of stack it to tStackName set the title of stack tStackName to (char 1 to -5 of tStackName) set the minWidth of stack tStackName to 800 set the minHeight of stack tStackName to 600 set the fileName of stack tStackName to tFileName -- "tFileName" is the full pathname of the file the user named earlier. set the visible of stack "Master Database" to true put the stackFileType into tSaveStackFileType set the stackFileType to "RevoABD_" save stack tStackName set the stackFileType to tSaveStackFileType show stack tStackName toplevel stack tStackName end doFileNew I'm sure you can canibalise bits of this. I think I originally canibalised this one from the list or bits from the employee database that came with earlier versions of runrev. hope ot is of use. cheers bob > > I've been setting the substack to a main stack of itself.
