Ken,
Thanks for that suggestion. The original script you gave me didn't work
(maybe it waasn't supposed to, though), but I did modify it to look for a
value in a hidden field [ if sName <> "mc" and (field "trial" card 1 <>
"nosave") then ]. Using the control card, I added a line to set the field
"trial" to "nosave". That solved the problem.
Had it not been for your suggestion, I would have sat here staring blankly
at my screen for hours. I am fairly new to Revolution and fear that most of
my scripting looks like Frankenstein's monster...
Anyway, thanks again for the suggestion; it set me on the right path to
solving the problem.
Jason

Well, you're going to run into problems with changing scripts at runtime -
there are script limits (10 lines I believe) that you can change from a
standalone, so that's not going to work for you most likely.
Better approach would be to set a custom property in the stack that
identifies whether it can be saved or not. For example, you could set the
"uCantSave" of a stack to "true" to prevent the ability of saving the
stack
my modifying the closeStack handler as follows:
on closeStack
put the short name of this stack into sName
if sName <> "mc" and (the uCantSave of this stack is not "true") then
answer "Do you want to save this stack?" with "yes" or "no"
if it is "yes" then
save this stack as stack "myStack"
set the uCantSave of stack "myStack" to true
save stack "myStack" -- make the property change permanent
end if
end if
end closeStack
