But you can still just refer to the data stack..
repeat with n = 1 to the number of cds in stack "dataStack"
repeat for each line L in fld "somedata" of cd n of stack "dataStack"
if L is whatImAfter then
doSomethingWith L
end if
end repeat
end repeat
the point being that you can refer to, and work with any part of of
your data stack without ever having to go to it.
Also bear in mind that refering to customProperties is many, many
times faster than refering to the contents of fields.
Cheers,

Hi Everyone,
Often times I have a button switch stacks in order to retrieve
data that I
need to complete that button's task. In HyperCard I could lock
the screen,
lock
the messages, push the card, go to the data stack, retrieve the
data, pop
the
card and insert the found data. All without displaying the data
stack.
When I
do the same thing in Revolution it displays the data stack for a
flash.
Why
does that happen, and how do I stop that data stack from showing?
Better still, you don't need to "go" to a stack to retrieve data from
it. You can just get it:
get fld "Whatever" of cd 200 of stack "MyData.rev"

Good idea, except for the fact that I have to find the data after I
get to
the data stack.
